Paper to HTML Converter is a free online tool to render scientific papers from PDF and LaTeX formats to HTML. It uses machine learning to extract different parts from the paper intelligently such as abstract, introduction, etc. It then displays all that data on a webpage. Here it also kind of archives the papers that you have converted to HTML by caching them on the left side.
Keeping data in PDF format is not really readable for small devices like mobiles. And that is why for better readability, you can convert them to web pages which are easy to read and can be further simplified using the built-in reading mode of modern browsers. And that’s where this handy tool paper to HTML converter comes in.
This is an intelligent tool that conveniently analyzes the supplied PDF or latex file and then generates a that page. It does not store the PDF or latex files that you upload, but it keeps the cached copy of the web page it generates for faster access by the user next time. But you can also have that removed by making a simple request to the webmaster.
How to Convert Scientific Papers to HTML from PDF, LaTeX with this Free Online Tool?

You can only share the web page version of the paper with others via URL. However, even though this tool uses machine learning, it may not work on some complex kind of scientific papers. But I hope in the later updates they will fix that.
