III. Summary
In this article, I will introduce 3 methods to convert PDF documents to EPUB format. We can choose professional software or use online websites to operate. It is more convenient and direct to use online websites for format conversion without downloading and installing software, but there are also some disadvantages: online websites will pop up advertisements, which will affect our operations; secondly, online websites are easily affected by network speed and file size. The time required for file and format conversion may be relatively long; and online websites cannot perform format conversion offline, and there is a risk of data leakage when uploading confidential files to online servers.
If the files you need to convert are confidential, it is recommended to use software for offline operations to better ensure data security. The three methods for converting PDF to EPUB format are common and users can choose according to their actual needs and usage habits.
