Turn an EPUB e-book into a PDF
Select the .epub book you want as a PDF. Several titles can be picked at once; copy-protected ones are skipped with a message.
Set up the pages: paperback or office paper size, typeface, text size and margin width. A live thumbnail of the opening pages updates with every change.
Press the convert button, then save the PDF or pick a different output format from the result window.
What you get when you turn an ebook into a PDF
Words you can find and quote
The book is rebuilt as genuine text instead of page snapshots. Look up a term with Ctrl+F, paste a passage into your notes or let a screen reader speak it, and the file size stays modest.
Easy to navigate
Jump between chapters from the side panel of any PDF reader, open a printed contents list with page numbers, and follow footnotes or web addresses with a single click.
Looks right on paper
From A4 and US Letter to A5 and 6 × 9 inch paperback pages, with serif or sans type, numbered pages and tidy paragraph breaks that avoid a single stray line at the top or bottom of a page.
A whole shelf in one go
Queue up a batch of books and they all share the same layout settings. Nothing to install, no login, no watermark, and the files are processed inside your own browser tab.
Ebook to PDF: who needs it and why
Reading apps are perfect for a commute, yet plenty of everyday jobs call for a fixed page instead. Here are some typical situations where this free tool saves time.
Students and researchers
Seminar reading often arrives as an EPUB, while citation styles ask for page numbers. A PDF version gives every paragraph a stable page, works with your usual annotation app and can be printed for margin notes before an exam.
Teachers and trainers
Need a public-domain novel or a course reader on paper for the whole class? Set US Letter or A4, switch on numbered pages and print it from any computer, even one without a reading app installed.
Offices, HR and freelancers
Staff handbooks, reports and guides published as ebooks are easier to circulate as a single PDF attachment that everyone can open. Self-publishing authors can also preview a manuscript on 6 × 9 inch paperback pages before ordering a proof copy.
Getting the best result
- Check the thumbnails: they show the first two pages with your exact settings, so you can tune the font size before converting.
- Classic novel feel: under More options, choose indented paragraphs and relaxed line spacing.
- Text only: switch off the cover and the contents page if you just want the chapters.
- Smaller attachments: leave picture compression on, so very large illustrations are shrunk.
- Unusual books: right-to-left, Asian-script and fixed-layout titles look closer to the original with Exact look, which uses A4 pages.
Your books never travel to a server: unpacking, layout and PDF creation all take place on your own device.

Questions people ask about this task
How can I turn an ebook into a PDF without installing software?
Open this page in any modern browser, add the EPUB file and press convert. The whole job happens in the browser tab, so there is no program to download.
Why does my ebook say it is protected with DRM?
Many shop-bought books lock their text with copy protection, and those files cannot be changed into PDF. Use a DRM-free edition; Kindle files such as AZW or KFX are a different format and are not supported either.
Can I highlight and copy text in the finished PDF?
Yes, as long as you keep the Readable PDF mode, which writes real text. Exact look stores every page as an image, so passages cannot be highlighted or copied there.
Which setting works best for comics or Japanese ebooks?
Pick Exact look. It paints the pages with the book's original styling, which suits fixed-layout comics and scripts such as Japanese, Chinese, Arabic or Hebrew that the built-in fonts do not cover.
Can I convert several ebooks to PDF at the same time?
Yes. Select multiple EPUB files together and each one becomes its own PDF using the layout you chose for the first.
