Questions
What happens to images and tables? ＋
Images are dropped entirely. Table cells come through as text, which may read oddly for complex tables.
What encoding is the file? ＋
UTF-8, so accented characters, curly quotes and non-Latin scripts all survive.
Are my files private? ＋
This tool runs entirely inside your browser — your file is never uploaded anywhere. It stays on your device, and closing the tab is all it takes to remove it.
Does this work with DRM-protected books? ＋
No. Files with DRM can’t be opened by any converter. This tool works with DRM-free files — like the ones you export from your own writing tools or buy from DRM-free stores.
Is it really free? ＋
Yes. Every tool, every file size, no account. There is no paid tier and nothing is held back.
