What it does

Turn a PDF into clean Markdown — headings, lists, tables, and OCR for scanned pages. Everything runs in your browser; nothing is uploaded.

Accepts: PDF files

Who it is for

Anyone moving PDF content into notes, documentation, a wiki, or an AI tool that reads Markdown — and anyone who cannot upload a document to a third-party service.

How to use it

  1. Choose a PDF from your device.
  2. Adjust the conversion options if you need to, including whether OCR runs on scanned pages.
  3. Convert, then copy the Markdown or download it. Extracted images can be downloaded as a ZIP.

Good to know

  • OCR for scanned pages runs on-device using a self-hosted engine and an English language model.
  • A quality check runs after conversion and reports how confident the result is.

Privacy

This tool runs entirely in your browser. Your file is read locally and is never uploaded to a server. How privacy works.
