It's Calibre and I didn't say it removes DRM, but I could have been  
more clear.

Calibre works on non-DRM files and does a good job of converting pdf  
to epub.

If you want to know how to remove DRM, google and you will find lots  
of instructions. I haven't tried to remove any DRM because it seems  
like a lot of work and I don't want to.

Sorry if I didn't make myself clear.
