What is a PDF to HTML converter?

A PDF to HTML converter takes a PDF and saves it as an HTML web page. People use it to convert a PDF to HTML, export a PDF as HTML, or turn a PDF document into a page a browser can open. This page does that in the browser: you upload an unlocked PDF and download one HTML file. Each page that contains text becomes a section. Pictures and the original page layout are left out.
