About the PDF to Markdown tool
PDF to Markdown extracts the text of a PDF and rebuilds its structure as Markdown: larger text becomes # headings, bullet and numbered lists become Markdown lists, bold and italic text are kept, and lines are joined into proper paragraphs (with hyphenated words repaired). It is perfect for moving documents into a wiki, a static site, GitHub, Notion or Obsidian, or for feeding clean text to AI tools.
You can preview and copy the Markdown right on the page or download it as a .md file. Simple two-column layouts are read in the right order. Scanned PDFs have no text layer — run OCR PDF first.
100% private: your file never leaves your device — it is processed in your browser. No upload, no storage, no account.
