Question

Is there a way to download a PDF of a Google book (a purchased book) in the "original pages" format so that the PDF's page numbers match those of the printed book?

Community Answer

I'm afraid not. If you have a book in PDF and want the page numbers of the PDF file to match those of the actual book, you can use a free software such as jPDF Tweak (that's what I do, it works well).

Question

Can I convert a book preview to PDF without Google downloader?

Community Answer

If you can download the preview, another piece of software called Calibre should be able to convert it to PDF for you. You'll still need to download and install Calibre, however.
