Calibre is one of the most popular converters out there, but there are many more if you google "PDF to ePub Mac". Be sure to check if you need to. Many eReaders these days support PDF as well as ePub.

Ylyi001,
Sorry, the title on this post is "Forum Index > General Acrobat Topics > Convert PDF to Epub for mac,What can I do?". I just noticed that the original post says they have Acrobat 9 on Windows, not Mac, but I didn't get that on the first read (not the first time someone has missed a conflicting detail).
Thank you for the link, but I'm now aware that they may need a Windows application to convert PDF to ePUB.

Keep in mind that PDF is an "end point" format and as such not particularly suitable for conversion to epub.
Acrobat products do not support export to ePUB.
Export to MS Word (RTF) is supported.
Note: Adobe Reader does not support export of content to other file formats.
.
Acrobat Pro supports export to RTF (aka "Word"). Arcrobat X Standard also supports such export .
If a PDF has no DRM applied and the PDF is a well-formed Tagged PDF such export (to RTF) is rather good.
The Acrobat X products do a rather good job of export for untagged PDF.
Regardless, expect to spend time doing some degree of layout & format clean up with MS Word.
.
For PDF some measure of success may be had with Calibre; BUT PDF is not a particularly desirable "input" to Calibre.
Rather, start with RTF.
