I'll tell you clearly and loudly: I don't like Calibre! So, how can I convert PDF to ePUB without it?

You really don't like Calibre. OK, we get it. :) – Richard Holloway Jul 29 '12 at 21:50

We know you don't like Calibre... but have you tried it's CLI conversion tool?

The Calbire install provides the command "ebook-convert" that will handle what you want, and there's no need to run Calibre.

ebook-convert file.pdf file.epub

is all that's required.

LibreOffice has an epub exporter extension, so you can install the LibreOffice PDF importer extension, import your PDF, and then export to epub.

Have a look at www.convertfiles.com, you can easily convert .pdf to .epub using their free online conversion tool.
