is there any Library for ePub

Question

I want to write converter that gives me full control over converting PDF to ePUB? What i am looking is that the converter

-should not cut the words in the end line. If a text is one paragraph then epub must be one paragraph without any additional space characters and cutted words.
-should recognize the bookmarks in pdf document and should create a table of content (TOC) in epub version.
should resize the images.
should be in UTF8, its a must to be compatible for Turkish characters.

Please Suggest me any Library for this?

There are lots of PDF toolkits out there, ask your favorite search engine. — Cos Callis, May 04 '11 at 13:28

You might find Calibre (http://calibre-ebook.com/) of use. It supports PDF input, export to ePub and has command line utilities. I suspect, though, to achieve what you want you will need to pre-process the PDF with one of the standard PDF libraries to extract the required metadata, resize the images etc.

If you do go to the trouble of doing extensive pre-processing on the PDF you may as well write the ePub directly since it will be a relatively small additional step and removes the dependency on calibre or similar.

Let us know if you do find some good PDF-ePub libraries.

I have not had a go at it myself, but you may want to have a look at this.
