I had "help" to convert my PDF to ePub. They didn't send me the KPF, but I eventually got Amazon Authors' Support to send it to me. She warned it's not editable. I unzipped it and found my original PDF, plus hundreds of "metadata" files that appeared to be mySQL stuff. And my "helper" wants $$$ to correct a few typos that I had no trouble correcting in the print-on-demand versions simply by uploading new PDFs. > Once you have HTML, the next step (generating an epub out of it) > should be relatively trivial, possibly to the point that you could > even do it manually.
