Calibre is far from ideal so I wonder if there is a better way to convert a PDF into EPUB? Maybe a new AI tool exist for that purpose? What do you use?

    The ideal would have to be some sort of AI translation. The problem is that PDF is a page layout format and EPUB is a reading format and you can’t just extract the text without understanding what parts are affected by page layout, think of reading by columns for example. And you would need to train the AI on what’s unnecessary for reading comprehension
