how to convert markdown to pdf
Drop your MARKDOWN file
Drag your MARKDOWN file into the drop zone above, or click the box to pick a file from your computer or phone. The browser reads the file directly — nothing uploads.
Click Convert
The page runs marked + jsPDF on your device to decode the Markdown and encode it as Portable Document Format. Most conversions finish in a few seconds; large or codec-heavy files (RAW, video) can take longer.
Download the PDF file
When the conversion finishes, the PDF file is ready to download. Save it anywhere on your device.
FAQ
common questions
How does the Markdown render visually in the PDF?
The converter parses your Markdown to HTML, applies a clean default stylesheet (heading hierarchy, code-block backgrounds, table borders, list bullets), and renders to PDF. The result reads like a typeset document — proper headings, indented lists, formatted tables — not like raw Markdown source. Code blocks render in a monospace font with a tinted background.
Will my code blocks have syntax highlighting?
Not in the current pipeline — code blocks render in a monospace font with a grey background, but tokens aren't coloured by language. For syntax-highlighted PDF output, use a dedicated Markdown-to-PDF tool that bundles a highlighter (Pandoc with --highlight-style, or Markdown editors like Typora with syntax themes baked in).
Will images in my Markdown appear in the PDF?
Yes when the converter can resolve the image URLs. Local images referenced by relative paths only work if the converter can access those paths; in a browser-based converter like this one, absolute URLs and data: URIs are the reliable way to include images. For self-contained Markdown intended for PDF conversion, inline images as data URIs in the source.
Will tables render correctly?
Yes — GitHub-Flavored Markdown tables (pipe syntax) convert to HTML tables and render with visible borders in the PDF. Column alignment from the GFM separator row (:---, :---:, ---:) is preserved. Tables with very wide content may overflow the page margin; the converter doesn't auto-resize columns.
How big will the PDF be?
Small — typically tens to hundreds of KB for typical documents. Markdown source is plain text and converts to a PDF that's mostly vector text and minimal styling. Documents with many embedded images can be larger; an image-heavy Markdown file converts to a larger PDF in proportion to its image content.
