Reflowly

Read it on paper, or read it on your e-reader. Reflowly converts both ways, entirely on your iPhone or iPad: nothing is uploaded. EPUB ā PDF Turn a DRM-free ePub into a paginated, printable PDF. Each chapter starts on a new page, the cover comes first, and the book's table of contents becomes PDF bookmarks. The book's own fonts, styles and pictures are kept, and no line of text is ever cut in half at the bottom of a page. ⢠Paper: A4 or US Letter (set for your country automatically) ⢠Margins: narrow, normal or wide ⢠Text size: small, medium or large PDF ā EPUB Turn a text PDF into a reflowable ePub that fits any e-reader screen. Reflowly rebuilds the book: running headers, footers and page numbers are removed, words split by a line-end hyphen are joined again, paragraphs that run across pages become whole, larger type becomes headings, and two-column pages are read column by column. New chapters start at each heading, or every 10 pages. SEE IT FIRST Converting and previewing are free: scroll through every PDF page, or read every reflowed chapter, before you decide. Saving and sharing the converted file is a one-time purchase ā no subscription, no account, no ads. GOOD TO KNOW ⢠DRM-free ePubs only. Books bought in e-book stores are usually copy-protected and can't be converted. Public-domain books and files an author or publisher gives you work great. ⢠PDF ā ePub needs a PDF with selectable text. Scans and photos of pages have no text to reflow. ⢠Complex layouts (magazines, forms, heavy tables) may reflow imperfectly. Pictures on text pages are not carried over; pages that are only a picture are kept as pictures. ⢠Opens files from Files, or from another app with "Open in Reflowly". Questions: overlapmarr@gmail.com
