About the EPUB to PDF
EPUB is the most common e-book format, but it needs an e-reader app, and printing from those apps is often impossible. This converter opens a DRM-free EPUB in your browser, reads its chapters in order and lays them out as a PDF with each chapter starting on a new page. Headings, paragraphs, lists, block quotes, tables and JPG or PNG pictures are kept, and bold, italic and links come along too. Choose A4 or Letter and a text size, then download the PDF.

What the PDF looks like
The document is set in a clean, readable layout: a bold title if you add one, clear heading sizes, comfortable line spacing, indented lists, shaded code blocks and tables with grid lines. Choose A4 or Letter, a small, normal or large text size and optional page numbers at the bottom of each page. Links stay clickable in the PDF.
Where to find DRM-free EPUBs
Project Gutenberg and Standard Ebooks offer thousands of free classics. Many publishers sell DRM-free books, and your own exported writing from tools like Pages, Vellum or Google Docs is DRM-free too.
Printing a book
Choose A4 or Letter and the large text size for comfortable reading on paper. Print double-sided to save paper; a 300-page PDF prints on 150 sheets. Our PDF Pages per Sheet tool can put two book pages on each side for a booklet.
What is read from the EPUB
The converter follows the reading order listed in the book's package file, skips navigation pages and scripts, and reads each chapter's XHTML. The book's title and author are shown when it finishes.
Reading on other devices
A PDF of a book reads well on tablets and computers and prints anywhere. On small phones, a reflowable EPUB is usually easier to read, so keep the original EPUB as well. Choosing the large text size makes the PDF more comfortable on a tablet.
Phone and computer
Convert on a computer for long books; phones work for shorter ones. To get an e-book from a PDF, use PDF to EPUB, and for Word files use Word to PDF.

Frequently asked questions
Why does it say the book has DRM?
Books bought from many stores are protected with DRM, which encrypts the text. Only DRM-free EPUBs, such as those from Project Gutenberg, Standard Ebooks and many independent publishers, can be converted.
Will the PDF look like the e-book app?
It uses its own clean layout with the book's structure. Publisher fonts and complex designs aren't reproduced.
Are pictures included?
JPG and PNG pictures are included, scaled to fit the page. SVG and other formats are left out.
Can I convert Kindle books?
Kindle formats (AZW, KFX) aren't supported. DRM-free books can be converted to EPUB with Calibre first.
How long does a whole novel take?
A few seconds on a computer; a novel usually makes 200 to 400 PDF pages.
Which languages are supported?
Text uses the Figtree font, which covers English and the other Latin-alphabet languages, such as French, German, Spanish, Polish and Turkish. Greek, Cyrillic, Asian scripts and emoji aren't in the font yet; the tool lists any characters it had to replace with ?.
Is my document uploaded?
No. It is read and turned into a PDF in your browser, so it never leaves your device.
Will the table of contents be in the PDF?
The chapters are kept in order with their headings. A clickable table of contents page isn't added; use our Bookmark PDF tool to add bookmarks for each chapter.
