About PDF and HTML

PDF (Portable Document Format) is a fixed-layout format designed for consistent viewing and printing across any device — built for final distribution, not for continued editing.

HTML (HyperText Markup Language) is the markup language web pages are built from — structured text with links, images, and styling defined by tags.

What to expect: PDF source content is extracted rather than natively re-read, so complex tables or unusual spacing occasionally shift slightly — worth a quick check after conversion.
