Software / Items that you need.

1. A good screen capturing (Print Screen) tool. I prefer “Gadwin PrintScreen” as it is free and easy to setup. It can be downloaded from the web site: http://www.gadwin.com/download/
2. Adobe Digital Edition E-book (of course that is the e-book that you need to convert.
3. Any software that can integrate multiple images (JPEG) to single PDF. You can use various PDF printers available on web or PDF converters (Search google using JPEG to PDF and you can find many results). But I prefer Adobe Acrobat Professional, as it is quite easy to use.

Why to convert Adobe Digital E-book to Normal PDF

1. First of all you have paid for the book, so it your right to open the book on any PC you want. Once the book is converted, you can save it pen drive, CD, DVD or send yourself on email and open anywhere in the world.
2. You can take printouts of the page(s) that you need for reference.
3. If you wish you can share it with your friends and other people.
4. If the book is not worth for what you have paid for it, you can share it with other people.

Process

1. Install the free Gadwin PrintScreen. The installation is pretty straightforward and it would be setup in couple of minutes.
2. Next setup the options in Gadwin PrintScreen as follows:
3. In Preferences, Under the Section Capture Settings, use the following settings:
4. Hotkey – Printscreen (or any other key that you prefer)
5. Check “Show notification messages”
6. Check “Preview the Captured image”
7. In the “Source” Settings, Choose “Rectangular Area” and Uncheck “Capture Mouse Cursor”
8. In the “Destination” settings, Check “Automatic Naming”. In the File name, mention “0” and specify any directory where you want to keep images. I choose “C:\Book”. Please note that you have to create a new folder in C:\ drive by name book.
9. In the “Image” settings, choose type of Image “JPEG” and set “JPEG Quality” to 100%.
10. Now capture one by one all the images of the book including any blank pages. This will help you in tracking how much images have been captured.
11. Once all the images are captured as JPEG, open “Adobe Acrobat Professional”
12. In the file menu, choose “Create PDF” and then choose “From Multiple Files…”
13. Click on “Browse” under the section “Add Files” and browse to the directory where images were captured (e.g. C:\Book)
14. Select all the images and make sure that the numbering is correct for the images i.e. 001, 002, 003, ……………..
15. Click on OK
16. You are done. PDF file has been created.
