pfdtohtml rpm package can be found into the "extras" repo;

Run "rpm -qli pdftohtml" first, you may have already it installed!

If not, you know... either your own by hand or yum can do it for you.

Be aware it has several limitations (such as tables, etc..)

Copied & pasted:

Summary: PDF to HTML converter

Description:
 PDFTOHTML converts Portable Document Format (PDF) files to HTML
format. This release converts text and links. Bold and italic face are
preserved, but high level HTML structures ( like lists or tables ) are
not yet generated. Images are ignored ( but you can extract them from
the PDF file using pdfimages, distributed with the Xpdf package ).
The current version is tested on Linux and Solaris 2.6
