Extract HTML from PDF

[Timur Gadzo]

Hi. Is is possible to extract HTML (rich text, formatted text) from PDF?

If I open PDF in Chrome and copy, seems only text is copied, without formatting, why?

Pdfs use postscript (with absolute coordinates) and a bunch of encoded streams and dictionaries.

That is to say, there is no mark up language to extract.

You would have to write your own or find some pdf to html converters online.
