This doesn't include OCR function. The Pro Version has OCR . So Image based PDF / Scanned PDF can't be handled by this.
Excluding that issue It is really convenient PDF Converter. As it claims it can preserve all the texts, images, graphics with the original layout and format without much trouble. Though in some cases a dark dotted line or continious spot appeared over the texts .

Installed and registered without problems on a Win 8.1.3 Pro 64 bit system. A not so clean install with an additional Wondershare helper.

A Chinese company with address and phone, digitally signed as Shenzen Wondershare Information...

Hmmm, which software is this? How to be polite??? Well, thze company claims, this is the $79.95 version, but the registration says, that the OCR, which is part of the $79.95 "Pro"version is missing:

The "PDF converter has another price tag:

Okay... after start a small not resizable interface opens, you add your PDF, choose an output format,a path and convert.

The result is... hmm, how to be polite, a little confusing:

But works for simple PDF files very good:

The quality of the epub conversion depends of course from the same source "quality", it is a base to start to work with Sigil (for example), a simple copy and paste would be faster...

If you don't have a simple PDF to Word converter, you can take this. Does his job with simple files, fails on complex PDF with tables and graphics.

Uninstalled via reboot, cannot compete with the good ones, except in pricetag.

I was completely baffled yesterday, that a program tries to root a Samsung device silently without any user interaction. Never thought, that this would happen. Try to get your money back... LOL

Without OCR? It's 19.2 MB only and they don't mention any OCR for this restricted version (no free tesseract engine e.g.). I looked up the size of outdated Abbyy Finereader 5 (139,204,786 bytes), Abbyy_Finereader_6_sprint (66,367,986 bytes) and a 2013-year Wondershare PDF Converter (88,977,944).

Abbyy Finereader5 still for free (corrected link!):
You remember my formerly cited (outdated but still useful)
https://forum.raymond.cc/threads/abbyy-finereader-5-0-pro-for-free.35458/
with registration and download links:
http://register.avanquest.com/ABSOFT/produits/Promotion/enregistrement_presse/VNU/FineReader0906/avq_fr_cov.cfm?CFID=5089403&CFTOKEN=14305582
and broken download link (corrected here by me) now is
ftp://ftp2.avanquest.com/bluesquad/FR/FineReader/Abbyy%20Finereader5.exe

Both links checked today being online (presumably for advertising reasons) but I won't reregister and redownload just for the fun of it, having a very limited connection.

I hope that next Wondershare GOTD will be less restricted, same as was in past times. Best wishes to Wondershare in China and GOTD. And many thanks!

This is a good software product. I have version 4.0.1 from a former GAOTD offering. I have had good success in converting documents and recommend it. I may even download and update my software.
