Retain original formatting of forms: allow you to preserve text, numbers and formatting in the original PDF file. This option is not suitable for some un-regular PDF tables, as there might be some positioning error that may affect the usual calculation after conversion.
Combine all pages into a single Excel sheet: It allows you to export PDF files in a single Excel page.
PDF to EPUB:
Text and images to epub: convert the text and images of the original PDF file to EPUB format. Users can copy the text or save images from the converted files.
Each page as an image to epub: convert each page of a PDF file as a whole image. The converted file looks the same as the PDF, but users cannot copy the text or save the images in the file.
PDF to Image:
