Of course, it would also be possible to post-process the HTML data with an
external program and copy the pictures to external files. I don't know if
there is an existing program to do this, though. (Doing it manually would
also be possible, although this isn't ideal.)

Another question might be where the PDFs come from, and why you need
converted to EPUB; depending on the answer, it might be possible to do
something else in order to do what is needed (including for converting the
paragraphs). However, that isn't the question being asked, so for now we
just answer the question about converting PDF to EPUB.
