Convert EPUB to Markdown

Purpose

Convert EPUB ebook files to Markdown format, preserving structure and formatting.

Input

• Path to the EPUB file you want to convert

Steps

1. Install pandoc:

apt-get update && apt-get install -y pandoc

2. Convert the EPUB file to Markdown:

pandoc "<user's_epub_path>" -t gfm-raw_html -o "<output_markdown_path>"

3. Tell the user where the converted Markdown file was saved.

Note

The gfm-raw_html format produces cleaner output by removing embedded HTML elements from the EPUB.
