Frequently asked questions

How does PDF to Markdown conversion work?

The tool extracts text from each PDF page, analyzes font sizes to detect headings, and converts them to Markdown heading syntax (# ## ###). Body text becomes regular paragraphs.

Can I use this for LLM or RAG pipelines?

Yes. The Markdown output preserves heading hierarchy, making it ideal for semantic chunking in RAG pipelines or as context for LLMs.

Does it handle multi-column layouts?

The tool uses the reading order provided by pdf.js, which works well for most single-column documents. Complex multi-column layouts may not preserve the intended order.

Is my PDF uploaded to a server?

No. The file is processed entirely in your browser using pdf.js. Your document never leaves your device.
