Frequently asked questions
How do I convert a PDF to Markdown?
Open the PDF here. The text is turned into Markdown, with headings, bold and italic, lists, links and tables, which you can copy or download as a .md file.
Can I keep the images from the PDF?
Yes. Tick Include images and you'll get a zip with the .md file and an images folder it links to.
Why use Markdown instead of plain text?
Markdown keeps the document's structure, such as headings and lists, so it renders properly in GitHub, note apps and wikis, and gives AI tools clearer input.
Does it work on scanned PDFs?
Scanned pages have no text layer. The tool tells you which pages these are; run OCR PDF on them first.
