Upload a PDF, extract the text, edit the Markdown output, and download. Works with text-based PDFs: reports, docs, articles.
A PDF to Markdown converter extracts the text from a PDF and rebuilds it as clean Markdown — detecting headings, lists, paragraphs, and simple tables from the document's structure. It's the fastest way to get editable, version-controllable text out of a static PDF.
Upload a PDF and the tool extracts its text locally using Mozilla's pdf.js, then converts it to Markdown you can edit and download. It works best with text-based PDFs (exported from Word, Google Docs, or LaTeX); scanned documents, multi-column layouts, and embedded images won't convert and may need a dedicated OCR tool. Your file never leaves your browser.
Yes. The PDF to Markdown converter is completely free with no usage limits, no account, no watermarks, and no hidden fees.
Your PDF never leaves your browser. All text extraction and conversion happen locally on your device using Mozilla's pdf.js library. Nothing is uploaded to any server.
It works best with text-based PDFs: documents created from Word, Google Docs, or LaTeX. The converter detects headings, lists, and paragraphs based on font size and structure. Complex layouts, multi-column documents, and scanned PDFs may need manual editing.
No. This tool extracts text content only. Images, charts, and embedded graphics in the PDF are not converted. For documents where images are critical, consider a dedicated OCR tool.
Simple tables are detected based on text alignment and converted to Markdown table syntax. Complex tables with merged cells or nested structures may not convert perfectly and will need manual adjustment.
