Search in google for "converting pdf to epub". You will get plenty of results.

Since I am a eBook lover, so I think some useful site to make the conversion.

There is free PDF to ePub converter online calibre.com but it has a catsh that you may not convert in batch at one time. And it perhaps takes a long time to present you the output files.

Generally speaking, it's a bad idea. An ePub file, essentially, is a ZIP file with a bunch of HTML and image files inside. HTML is essential in order for the content to be reflowable. When you start with a PDF, you don't have the flow, so you usually end up converting PDF pages into images, which sort of defeats the purpose of ePub.

Also, you may try this tutorial about "how to convert PDF to ePub format". Results depend entirely on the PDFs that you want to convert.

Glad that you got it working.

Legal Note: If they are not your copyright owned property then it is illegal for you to convert them to another format for distribution. If they are your legal property then you should have the original files the PDFs were created from, and in that case you would have someone import those original files into InDesign if they aren't already then publish out as an ePub.

yes u can, there is free software.If u have problem's with the free software  (callaber , 2epub... extra) u may have problems with the PDF u are using. PDF's are just HTML that is ether saved as images or text. If it's saved as images ( most likly they are cuz u got them from a cd) then u will need to use OCR to digitally convert the images to text so that u can convert it, this is expensive enough u might as well just use a real company to do the conversion they will do it all for around the same price as useing the ocr. My favorite company is   <a target='_blank' rel='nofollow' href=”https://convertabook.com/” >epub converter</a>
