Turn PDFs into clean, reflowable EPUBs on macOS: Finder Quick Action + CLI, with Apple Vision OCR and on-device proofreading
项目介绍
pdf2epub converts PDFs into clean, reflowable EPUBs on macOS. It installs as a Finder Quick Action — right-click any PDF and choose Convert to EPUB — plus a pdf2epub command for Terminal users. Under the hood it combines Apple's PDFKit, Vision OCR and Foundation Models: layout heuristics recover real fonts and structure from the content stream, scanned pages go through Vision OCR, and Apple's on-device foundation model does a narrow proofreading pass (each request asks a single yes/no question; a spelling change is only accepted when it turns a non-word into a word through a typical OCR confusion). Chapters come from the PDF outline, the printed Contents page, or detected headings; footnotes become linked notes; output passes epubcheck with 0 errors. The author is explicit about how it was made — the README's Et Cetera section reads: "Claude Opus 5.5 made all of this. I take no credit beyond the initial desire and some busy work to bundle it up."

Note: this is a command-line / Quick Action tool with no graphical main window, so the screenshot shows the repository page.
