Answer 1

With a script on the server. Google pdf to html + your language

Answer 2

PDF does not generally store the structure of a document, it is mostly a vector graphic format, not a semantic one. Therefore, the most effective way is recognition through OCR. All kinds of tools that try to extract tables simply based on the position of the text work, of course, faster, but the result is worse. So decide, checkers or go.

Answer 3

No, there is no such converter. Moreover, some PDFs are generally scans of documents (pictures). Therefore, what kind of universal converter can we talk about? Another thing is recognition (OCR). In principle, this is the most realistic that you can use. If the document is clearly digitized (text, vector graphics), then you can try to drag it out in fragments and paste it somewhere with an attempt to preserve the structure. But often such attempts end in failure. Although sometimes it doesn't work when using Acrobat Reader, it does when using Foxit Reader... Good luck.
