Versions:
doc-html-translate, published by SZA and currently at version 26.0912.2026 (one of 13 released versions), is a Windows application in the document conversion and e-book tooling category that transforms files in EPUB, PDF, MOBI, AZW3, FB2, RTF, TXT, Markdown, and HTML formats into clean, locally stored HTML complete with generated navigation and a genuine multi-level table of contents. The software serves readers, archivists, and multilingual users who need to standardize heterogeneous document collections into a single readable format, offering the choice between producing one long single page or preserving the original chapter structure with its table of contents. A built-in reader provides light, sepia, dark, and night themes along with text size and font controls, and it remembers the reading position so that re-opening an already-converted book is instant. Beyond straightforward format conversion, the application performs optical character recognition on text embedded in images, with English bundled by default and additional languages available on demand, and it can optionally translate entire documents either through the Google Cloud Translation API or via a locally running Ollama model, making it suitable for offline and privacy-conscious translation workflows. The user interface itself is available in 13 languages. The package ships with both a command-line tool, doc-html-translate, and a small graphical launcher, doc-html-ui, accommodating scripted batch processing as well as casual interactive use. For PDF input, pdftotext is bundled directly inside the binary, so no external dependency is needed for that format, while MOBI and AZW3 conversion additionally requires Calibre to be installed on the system and works only with non-DRM files. These characteristics position doc-html-translate as a combined converter, OCR utility, translation front end, and reading environment for local document libraries.
