FB2 to PDF Converter

About This Tool

FB2 to PDF Converter processes FB2 eBooks and outputs PDF documents suitable for any reader or library system. It is designed for librarians, researchers, educators, publishers, and individual readers who require consistent formatting across devices. When you need shareable, printable copies or repository-ready files, this tool provides deterministic PDF output while preserving essential document structure and metadata.
Conceptually, the conversion pipeline parses the FB2 XML, resolves embedded and system fonts, and builds a PDF layout that maps FB2 elements to PDF constructs. It handles images, metadata, and the table of contents, generating a linked, printable document. Optional options control font embedding, page size, margins, compression, and whether to enforce subset fonts. Outputs are standards-compliant PDFs suitable for indexing and archival.
The tool supports batch processing and can be integrated into automated workflows via an API or CLI. It preserves bibliographic metadata (title, author, language, publication date) and enables bookmarks and a navigable table of contents. It does not convert DRM-protected files or non-text content beyond file support.
Typical use cases include converting library catalogs, preparing eBooks for classroom distribution, archiving personal libraries, or converting small publishing batches for print-ready distribution. The value lies in consistency, speed, and reduced manual reformatting while maintaining legibility and searchability in the resulting PDFs.
