@ #27,

Kathy, tried everything you said to do, even with trying to get help from your website, the program still won't work on my Vista. Have uninstalled and reinstalled with the same program crash. I do a lot with PDF and want to use this program. Maybe I will find one that does work with Vista.

It preserves text content, page layouts, images and hyperlinks accurately. And the PDF to Word Converter plays well in converting encrypted files. Thanks GOTD.

PDF converter installed just fine (after I finally got the
correct instructions :)

I had to uninstall twice.

OS is Windows 7 - 32 bit.

I put a document into the converter... it cranked for a wee
bit then, gave me an error message.... and stopped working.

As someone wrote... Windows 7 is being released next month..

Thank you for your comment.
This program converts PDF only to HTML. Our PDF to PowerPoint will be released within 2 weeks. You can keep an eye on www.anypdftools.com for details.

To formatters (comment 55)

Thanks for your great advice. Actually, supporting Windows 7 is under our consideration. Our PDF to Word has been already updated to support Windows 7. At present, PDF to HTML does not work well on systems of 64bit. We will consider improvement on this according to customers' demands. Please contact support@anybizsoft.com with any further concern. Thanks!

Thanks for your comment.
We are attaching great importance to the underline issue. Our developers are working to improve it in the next update. If you have any question or concern about our program, please contact support@anybizsoft.com. Thank you for your attention.

Comments from Ashraf (#1), Allen (#21) and G (#49) cover most of my conclusions about PDF to HTML Converter--especially the underline problem and separate spans for every word. (If there is some rationale for formatting the HTML source this way we haven't heard it yet.) It's good that AnyBizSoft seems interested in resolving these issues, but I wonder why they are depending on GAOTD users to tell them about two obvious problems that are happening to most if not all of us.

Also, a handful of bookmarks were created that have no apparent rhyme or reason and no connection to a TOC or bookmarks in the original PDF.

On the positive side, I really like the simple, elegent GUI as well as the toolbar and navigation tab added to the output. An option to leave out these added elements would be useful in some cases along with suggestions from G to optionally remove headers and footers and allow text to flow continuously. This and reducing span tags to at least the paragraph level would result in HTML that would be much easier to feed into other tools.

For anyone who didn't notice, this converter and AnyBizSoft's PDF to Word converter are both on sale today only (9/15) for $9.95 each exclusively for GAOTD users. Given the above issues, I wouldn't purchase these tools at full price, but at $10 each I'm going to take a chance that AnyBizSoft will continue to improve. Otherwise I might keep these installed because they're free, but feel left out if the issues are resolved in a future version.

Finally, I would like to know if PDF to Word and PDF to HTML licenses can be converted to a single PDF Converter license since PDF Converter is basically the Word and HTML converters combined with the free PDF to Text tool.

pffffft!

For Mike>Yes Vista it is soo bad because the reality with Vista is bad for peoples,because they complain.Reality with Xp is easy life because everything is at maturity.Vista was created and not touched maturity that appear 7.For Vista is no time like for XP.Problems are not what i like,problems come from money.Microsoft want to make more money and peoples in condition of crisis,can't adapt to buy every year or at two years a new s.o. and is simple,if you can make everything with XP why to buy a new s.o?Only because is more beautifull?.

Is there a simple way to do the reverse?-HTML to PDF? I save a number of web pages, such as purchase receipts. Saving the entire page with all the code is an iffy and sometimes messy process. It would be great if I could just turn it into a PDF and save it that way. (I'm still rather new to Vista and all the accompanying software. So I apologize if it's a dumb question.

For #59.Try Open Office 3>section Calc>Save As>Html.Everything:html,images must to be in the same folder after conversion.Maybe you can try to combine with:Pdf to html converter where this soft don't work so good.

Even with the lowest compression available, it made my nice jpg images look like they'd been overly compressed. It also didn't maintain the page layout - putting a divider line all by itself on a single page - not at all like the original pdf I created with Open Office this morning. Not so good for that document but maybe it'll do something else better.

I thought maybe the compression slider was working the opposite of what the demonstrated image quality shows and moved it to where it should be trashing the jpgs, but it was even worse.

That ad on the main screen every time you open the software is really annoying. Trying to get you to buy some of their software EVERY time you use the app is really not cool. Special deal or not. I hope it goes away after today. Free should mean free, not ad-ware.

Granted I'm no expert installer, but it seemed to install and it seemed to activate, but nothing happens when I hit register. What's up with that? I have Vista. Guess I will hopefully uninstall it now.

#60 did you try the program after running activation? The activation window may have been hidden behind other windows so be sure to try the software. It worked on my XP when I ran activation before the setup program. Either way, you should ask yourself if your thumbs down is misdirected towards AnyBizSoft when it should be directed toward Microsoft.

Installed easily on Windows XP and worked very well (did not notice and flaws)on the most complex pdf files I have. There are a lot worse PDF-to-OTHER converters around, and some oddball PDF files that won't convert perfectly, but this is always the case.

This one is a thumbs up for me. Let's not be confused by Vista and Windows 7 problems since XP is still very popular and probably will be for a long time. Thanks GAOTD for this fine FREE forever (if acquired today) software.

#57: "Vista is a loser ... Windows 7 represent future"

Please don't get me wrong -- I like XP, Vista, & 7, & run all 3 -- but 7 *is* Vista pretty much. Haters need to get their act together. If Vista's sooooo bad, it's still there as the core of 7! Personally I don't care if you like Vista or 7 or Windows, but it strikes me as funny to despise Vista, yet love Vista after the 7 make-over.

PDF to HTML Converter does just what the name says, creating individual html [web] pages that can be used alone, or with the also created index.html page, inside a frame with a toolbar & table of contents. Like every other PDF converter I've ever seen, how well it works depends on what you feed it... There are lots of alternatives to Adobe's software, & they make pdf files differently. A very simple pdf of a web page from PDF Creator worked great -- a downloaded pdf originally created with InDesign CS2 looked OK, except for unicode characters getting mangled -- a pdf created by PDF Creator from a more complex web page was a mess after PDF to HTML Converter got done with it.

Once installed PDF to HTML Converter takes up ~18 MB with 244 files in 26 folders. While it didn't auto-install for me, vcredist.msi [Microsoft 2005 C++ runtime libraries] is included in the program folder. As noted in other comments, activation might be handled a bit better, but it works. Installation wasn't terrible as far as the registry was concerned in XP Pro SP3 32, but with around 300 entries & mods, even if you ignore the more or less housekeeping entries, I don't see this running from any USB sticks any time soon.

IMHO PDF to HTML Converter's biggest weakness is that it targets a [small?] niche market. If you own the content, you would create the HTML at the same time you created the PDF. And PDF is a better distribution format than HTML for fixed [non-changing] docs, that can be displayed in web browsers, plus saved & printed both easier & better. Thanks AnyBizSoft for providing this GOTD -- it's nice to have the PDF -> HTML option... even if I have no idea ATM what I'll use it for. :-)

I tried all the options here. It WOULD NOT activate on my standard XP system.

It sure says something about a company that can't even get its activation process to work. What makes it even worse is that this same company did a giveway here a year ago and had massive activation problems them.

Thumbs down -- real down.

PDF to HTML is nice, but what I need is a EXCEL 2007 spreadsheet converter to HTML. Does anybody knows a good freeware solution you can recommend me?

Awesome! It converted a PDF Newsletter to embed into a website almost flawlessly (the underline becoming a strike-through needs to be fixed).

Luckily I read the "read me" file, which informed me to run the "activate" first this time...

Thank you GOTD and AnyBizSoft!

Vista is a loser s.o because is an intermediary.Don't represent something.Xp is for majority and now is stable ,good ,have many free soft created for XP.Windows 7 represent future for rich in special and for poor peoples in future.Why are allways so many problems with Vista?

For #46.Try to increase to make more big at zoom.

Didn't work well with Windows 7 64 bit.

Registration wouldn't work, and tried as evaluation. Program hung after told to convert.

I realize the software specs say XP or Vista but as a suggestion, 7 is just around the corner.

Is there plans for a Windows 7 version??

I won't buy a program that won't run on 7 anymore. All 5 of my pc's are going to 7 next month.

Now i convert an entire e-boock,is a translation into romanian of Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.Conclusions:work excelent for romanian languages,no problems,navigation is easy,zoom work excelent,links are functionals.One little problem at images in special at tables are a little indinstinct soo in this direction must to make improvement.

Nice to see a 'stand-alone' program. Last time a offered program needed 'Adobe' installed.
The downside is that it's just converting one-way to a 'singel' format
If a converter wants to be of use it should at least convert both ways and to muliple formats. Thanks, but no thanks for this one.

@#1 ashraf - I'm surprised you missed those things that #21 Allen pointed out. Or maybe they just weren't worthy enough to make it on your "con" list....lol

Does this convert PDF to PPT? If not, any programs out there that do?

Is this support UTF-8 characters?

If they could fix the underlining, the rest of the conversion isn't too bad. Better than many I've seen. But on a document with a lot of underlining (eg a programming manual) it makes the output unusable.

Instead of trying to overlay the underlines as arbitrarily-placed rules, it ought to try to determine whether a rule is an underline or strike-out and use the corresponding HTML codes appropriately around the text.

Would like to see an option where it generates all the output as one page, maybe with some automated help to remove headers and footers (ie attempt to reflow the original)

Tried installing on Vista as a user and as an administrator. Still getting a message that this is only a trial version and I can buy the full version. This seems to happen frequently to Vista users and it's making the whole site seem less appealing.

Downloaded and installed. Tried to convert one of my .pdf files to .html and it did NOT keep the fonts and even some of the formatting wasn't kept. I'm disappointed. I had high hopes. Thanks anyway.

Program works real well, but has a problem with images in pdf files:
http://i31.tinypic.com/2vkn408.jpg

Easy to install,easy to activate,easy to learn and work.Xp will be the best forever.

Hard to install- took 4 tries to get it to activate.
Managed to get it to "see" a pdf, after much difficulty, and then it converted it into a blank page.
Mostly, i couldn't even get that far: the file chooser refuses to recognize .pdf's in a folder that had dozens of .pdf's.
This is crap.

Who want to use forever this soft if you click on register it give you registration code and email.I think that will work after uninstall or format hard.

To #25,

PDF to HTML is specified for webmasters, teachers, offcials, technical guys who want to share their pdf files with others online, after conversion, you could upload the converted html files and images to your ftp, and share with others on the web.

Installed fine. Opened program to try and could only do 3 pages as it said the product was not registered. I follwed the text file instructions. I'm on Vista. Really disspointed that you are not granted full access because of being a Vista user.

No support for RTL languages

You may find Free PDF to Text Converter at AnyBizSoft featured titles, right of the this page.

Doesn't register properly on Windows 7 Enterprise x64. With the official release of Windows 7 about a month away, software companies should have their software capable of running on this platform.

My evaluation is "again trick".
It doesn't matter than registration trough give-a-way-of-the-day has a message that it is successfuly registered, the registration windows appear and ask for registration code, in the registration windows of give-away is telling that have to enjoy with full registered copy. When the program is started it tells me that it is evaluation version and allowed only 3 pages per day. It is cheap trick to force the software to be bought. If I can not try for batch convert of 10-20 pages why I have to buy from them? There are so many other converters which can be bought and they have proven abilities to work. I do not like cheap tricks. More over produced file needs improvement. Do not download it and buy it.

does anyone know any free alternative with which
i can convert pdf files to txt files?
thnx

IFor those of you who have WordPerfect (I have version 10), which has the capability to convert a WP document to PDF, I have had great success copying a PDF document and pasting into my WordPerfect and it converts beautifully, although I don't remember if I've ever tried a document containing images. The PDF's I usually get also contain Hebrew letters and they also convert just fine.

I have no understanding about what a HTML is so don't know whether I can use this or not. However, I am grateful for the offerings provided by GOTD.

Anyone tried saving the PDF to Doc and then in Word, save it to HTML?

To Allen (comment 21)

Thank you for your information.
If it is convenient, would you please provide the PDF file you converted to support@anybizsoft.com for our testing? Technical support is available for you at support@anybizsoft.com. Thanks for your attention.

Kathy from AnyBizSoft Support Team

I run setup next activation and work on Xp.It mean that on XP is not important who is the first.

To Wizz (comment 15)

After downloading, please install the program first, and then click the Activation program to activate it. And close the program PDF to HTML before activating. There is information in the Activation program telling you that the activation is successful. If it still does not work for you, please contact us via support@anybizsoft.com.

Kathy from AnyBizSoft Support Team

Alternatively you can email the PDF file to pdf2html@adobe.com and you will get the html by mail automatically.
None of these converters are good specially if the PDF file isn't in English language.
