Using PDF to Markdown
This extracts an existing text layer with page separators. It does not infer heading hierarchy, reconstruct tables or recognize scanned text.
- Open a PDF containing selectable text.
- Choose TXT, Markdown or page-structured JSON.
- Review text order and missing characters after extraction.
Limits and checks
Up to 250 pages per input PDF and 100 MB per batch. Encrypted or malformed files may not open.
Frequently asked questions
Why is my extracted text empty?
The pages may be scanned images without a text layer. This release does not perform OCR, and extraction cannot recover text from pixels alone.
Is my content sent to a server?
No. Processing runs inside your browser. Optional editor recovery saves a draft on this device only. Read the privacy policy.
Will my original file be changed?
No. Downloaded results are separate copies. Open the finished output before sharing it or deleting an original.
