A PDF Import is not so difficult to Code, but how do we separate the resulting data (Text and Images) into chapters and scenes.

This is nothing trivial to do, the Text in PDF's are mostly without semantics!

Nice Feature, but also a Hell to make it a good feature...

Something like this is more suited as a Plugin or external tool, as a core feature.

What kind of pdf?

Linear document? double column text? text mixed with picture?

Like obw said, extract text from pdf is easy but sentence and sometimes words can be split an unordered in the pdf code.
