Are my EPUB files uploaded anywhere?

Is converting EPUB to PDF free?

Does converting EPUB to PDF lose quality?

EPUB and PDF describe content in fundamentally different ways, so the conversion is a reconstruction rather than a copy. The result is faithful, but not byte-for-byte equivalent. E-books reflow to fit the screen, PDFs do not. Page breaks are decided during conversion.

Do I need to install anything to open PDF files?

No. The conversion runs on our side and gives you a finished PDF file; opening it needs whatever software normally handles Portable Document Format.
