PDF2HTML

PDF2HTML is a simple-to-use command-line utility that creates HTML pages from PDF files, as the name implies. But it can also create XML items. It comprises several useful settings that are easy to execute.

While most users would rather work with graphical user interfaces for performing a conversion task, some of them prefer using command-line apps, as they usually offer greater flexibility when it comes to file manipulation. Plus, they do not require installation and can be run on any computer in a Command Prompt dialog.

Carrying out a straightforward conversion job via PDF2HTML, without configuring any options is particularly simple. All you have to do is specify the source file (provided that it's in the same directory as the PDF2HTML executable), along with the output file name for the HTML or XML item, or both (if you want to create two files of different formats simultaneously).

Plenty of settings can be adjusted through this app. For instance, you can set a page range, not print any messages or errors, print usage information, exchange PDF links by HTML, generate a complex document and ignore images. But you may also zoom in the PDF file, output hidden text, not merge paragraphs, print the copyright and version details, as well as set the owner and user passwords for encrypted files.

PDF2HTML is very light on the system resources, as expected. It carries out a conversion job rapidly and delivers HTML pages with a good quality concerning the text layout, images and other graphical elements. PDF2HTML is stable and doesn't cause any problems to the OS, thus it should satisfy all users who prefer a straightforward command-line utility for PDF conversions.
