PDF to HTML Conversion FAQ

What's the difference between Semantic HTML and Visual Replica modes?
Semantic HTML generates clean, editable markup with proper tags (h1, p, ul) that's easy to modify and SEO-friendly. Visual Replica uses absolute CSS positioning to match the PDF layout pixel-for-pixel but is harder to edit.
Will images from the PDF be included?
Yes. All embedded images are extracted and included in the HTML output as base64-encoded data, so the HTML file is self-contained with no external dependencies.
Can I edit the HTML output?
Yes, especially with Semantic HTML mode. The output uses standard HTML tags and CSS that can be edited in any text editor or web development tool.
Will the HTML be responsive?
Semantic HTML mode produces responsive output that adapts to different screen sizes. Visual Replica mode preserves fixed dimensions matching the original PDF page size.
Are hyperlinks preserved?
Yes. Both internal links (within the document) and external hyperlinks are converted to standard HTML anchor tags and remain clickable.
