Convert PDF file to a single HTML file

Question

I am trying to convert a PDF document to a single HTML file in java. Most of the converters online converts one PDF file to multiple HTML files. I want to convert the whole PDF to a single HTML file.

Any suggestions?

Answer 1

Have you looked at http://www.jpedal.org/html_index.php which has an optiont to write to single file.

Answer 2

I think it should be possible to parse your PDF document with itext and then generate your html file. I must admit I haven't checked if it is doable though.

Answer 3

Any suggestions?

You might always write some code using the JSoup API to write a single document that incorporates the body of each of the multiple HTML files. Combining styles & style-sheets (CSS) might be a bit more tricky (especially if the original HTML uses 'id' elements).

Though I find it hard to believe there is not a converter out there in which 'single document' is an option. I recommend searching further.
