What is a PDF to Markdown converter?

A PDF to Markdown converter turns the text of a PDF into Markdown, a plain text format that marks headings, lists and emphasis with simple symbols, so it works in notes apps, docs sites and AI tools. This one runs on your device and works best on simple text documents.

Why a PDF may not convert cleanly

A PDF stores where words sit on a page, not which ones are headings or paragraphs. This tool works that out from font size and spacing, so simple documents work best. Check the result before you rely on it.

Tables, images and scanned pages

Tables come out as plain lines of text, and images are left out. Scanned pages hold pictures of text, which this tool cannot read. Layouts with several columns may also come out in the wrong order.

Is my PDF uploaded?

No. Your browser reads the file on your device and does the conversion there, so the file is not sent to us or stored anywhere.
