is there any library or PHP project to manipulate pdf and change it into chm format ?

A:
I'd say very hardly. PDF is a document format that can contain all sorts of things. CHM is a structured help documentation format. Correct me if I'm mistaken, but I don't think these two mix at all, at least not in a way that you run a converter on a file and get a finished result.
What exactly are you trying to do?

@justjoe I think CHM is just a bunch of HTML files essentially, so maybe the first step is to get the PDF contents into HTML and then into CHM?

@justjoe as I said, I think you are best off taking the HTML detour, these are pretty complex things. Otherwise, start by grabbing the content from the PDF, that might already be work enough for a holiday :)
