Supports .pdf files
Using PDF to Markdown takes just three steps:
This tool uses the pdf.js library to parse PDF files directly in your browser. It extracts text content and automatically detects heading levels (H1-H6), lists, code blocks, and other Markdown elements based on font size, style, and layout characteristics. All processing happens locally in your browser — nothing is uploaded to any server.
PDF is a layout-oriented format without semantic structure. The tool does its best to identify headings, lists, paragraphs, etc., but complex layouts (multi-column, tables, special typography) may require manual adjustment. Always review the Markdown output after conversion.
Absolutely. All processing is done locally in your browser. Your file is never uploaded to any server. You can even use this tool while offline after the page loads.
This tool works with standard text-based PDFs. Scanned documents (image-only PDFs) will not produce text output, as OCR is not supported. Password-protected PDFs are not currently supported.
There is no hard limit, but very large PDFs (over 100 pages or 50MB) may impact performance due to browser memory constraints. Consider splitting large PDFs before processing.
