How to convert PDF to Markdown

  1. Attach a PDF containing selectable text.
  2. Start conversion and let FlowPDF read each page locally.
  3. Download the resulting Markdown file and review the structure.

Best use cases

This converter is useful for extracting reports, guides, policies and notes into a format that works well with documentation systems, text editors and version control.

What may be simplified

PDF stores text by visual position rather than document semantics. Multi-column layouts, tables, footnotes and decorative typography may appear in a simpler order. The output should be reviewed before publishing.

PDF to Markdown questions

Are images included?

No. The current output focuses on text and does not extract embedded images.

Does it preserve formatting exactly?

No. It creates simplified Markdown intended for review and editing.
