How our HTML conversion services work Five steps from your source files to pages ready to publish
- Before the first batchAgree the templateWe agree the page template, the class names and the tagging rules with your web team.
- Sample batchConvert a sampleWe convert a sample of your documents, and you check them in your own site.
- Every batchAgents convert, people decideAgents rebuild the text and structure, and send complex tables and diagrams to a person.
- Every batchValidate and testEvery page is validated, its links are tested, and it's checked in each browser.
- Every batchSign offThe batch owner checks a sample, signs the batch off and answers for it.
When HTML conversion services are the right fit And when XML or an accessible PDF would serve you better
A good fit when
- Your content lives in PDFs that visitors can't search or read on a phone
- You're moving a library of documents onto a new website
- Your designers hand over designs that someone has to code
Look elsewhere when
- Your systems need structured data rather than pages: see XML conversion
- The PDF itself has to stay and be accessible: see PDF accessibility
- You need a whole new website designed and built
Our HTML conversion services in detail What each conversion covers, and what you get back
PDF to HTML and Word to HTML conversion
A PDF is easy to print and hard to read on a phone. We convert PDFs, Word files, RTF and plain text into HTML pages that reflow on any screen and that search engines can read.
Agents rebuild the headings, lists, tables and footnotes, and a person checks every table whose layout carries meaning.
PSD to HTML and image to HTML
When your designers hand over Photoshop files or images, we code them as responsive HTML5 and CSS3. The layout is built without tables, so it adapts from a phone to a wide screen.
XML to HTML and HTML to XML
Content often has to move both ways between a content system and a website. We convert XML to HTML for publishing, and HTML to XML when the content has to go back into a system.
Slides, spreadsheets and legacy formats
We also convert the formats that content teams inherit.
- PowerPoint slides to HTML
- Excel tables to HTML
- TIFF, JPG, GIF and PNG scans to HTML
- Flash and SGML content to HTML5
How we check every HTML page
Every page is validated against W3C standards, its links and cross links are tested, and it's checked in Chrome, Safari, Edge and Firefox. A person looks at each page beside its source before the batch owner signs the batch off.
Questions about HTML conversion services What web and content teams ask us before they start
What are HTML conversion services?
HTML conversion services turn documents and designs, such as PDFs, Word files and Photoshop files, into HTML pages a website can publish. The pages keep the source's structure and work on every screen size.
Can you convert PDFs to HTML in bulk?
Yes. Agents convert the volume, and a person checks the tables, diagrams and pages where the layout carries meaning. A library of thousands of pages moves in batches, each signed off by the batch owner.
Will the HTML work with our content management system?
We code to the template, class names and rules your CMS expects, whether that's WordPress, Drupal, Adobe Experience Manager or one of your own. We agree them on a sample before any volume moves.
Is the converted HTML accessible?
We tag headings, lists, tables and images properly, which is the base of an accessible page. If you need a formal WCAG 2.1 check, we can test each page with a screen reader as part of the batch.
How much does HTML conversion cost?
Damco prices HTML conversion per page or per document. Plain text costs less than pages full of tables and diagrams, so we quote after converting a sample.
