    Mind giving a rundown of how you do it? I tried it many, many times and never accomplished much

      1. Use convert.io to convert pdf to EPUB
      2. Import EPUB to editor software such as sigil
      3. Find editing issues in the text by hand, once you’ve found one issue that gets repeated like “AuThOr 78” for page numbers
      4. Use the search and replace function to replace all instances with blank
      5. Skim over the text for a couple minutes not reading, but looking for other weird breaks in the text flow
      6. When you think you have them all export the file and start reading, if you see any other less obvious issues mark them in the notes and do a final edit for aesthetics

      You now have the book on EPUB to be placed in your personal cloud or whatever.
