I remember seeing an OCR program once that would accept pdf files, so it didn't need to recognize characters, but it still applied all the OCR layout recognition algorithms to try and detect the "proper" way to treat the document. I suspect calibre is doing very limited layout analysis (perhaps none). I seem to remember seeing libreoffice can import PDFs these days. I wonder if it is any better at layout? If so, you could import PDF and export HTML from office. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
