PDF to Markdown — Your Document, as Text
Need a PDF's content in a format you can edit, feed to an AI, or paste into a wiki? This free converter extracts the text and tables from any PDF (up to 2MB) and rebuilds them as clean Markdown — headings, lists and tables preserved.
Conversion runs entirely in your browser using the open-source PDF.js library. Your documents are never uploaded to any server, so even sensitive files stay private. Copy the Markdown or download it as a .md file.
Text and tables extracted
The converter rebuilds paragraphs, headings, lists and tables into proper Markdown syntax — not just a raw text dump.
Private by design
Because PDF.js runs locally in your browser, your files never leave your device — safe even for sensitive documents.
Great for AI workflows
Markdown is the ideal input format for large language models. Convert reports, papers and manuals, then paste the result straight into your AI assistant of choice.
How to use
- Upload your PDF file (up to 2MB).
- Click Convert to Markdown.
- Review the extracted Markdown.
- Copy it or download the .md file.
