About Markdown to PDF

The Markdown to PDF Converter transforms Markdown-formatted text into a professionally styled, paginated PDF document — all directly in your browser. Write or paste your Markdown content, see a live preview of the formatted output, and download a print-ready PDF with a single click. The tool supports the full GitHub Flavored Markdown specification: headings (H1–H6), bold, italic, strikethrough, inline code, fenced code blocks with language hints, blockquotes, ordered and unordered lists, task lists, GFM-style pipe tables, horizontal rules, images, and hyperlinks. The generated PDF includes clean typography, proper page breaks, styled code blocks, and formatted tables. Choose between A4 and US Letter page sizes. All conversion runs entirely in your browser using the open-source Marked library — no data is ever sent to a server, making it safe for private or sensitive content.

How to Use Markdown to PDF

  1. Type or paste your Markdown text into the left editor panel. Click "Load Sample" to see an example with all supported syntax.
  2. Watch the right panel update in real time showing the formatted preview of your document.
  3. Choose your preferred page size: A4 (210 × 297 mm, standard international) or Letter (8.5 × 11 in, US standard).
  4. Click "Download PDF" to generate and save the document. Your browser's print dialog will open with the styled content — select "Save as PDF" as the destination.
  5. The PDF preserves all formatting: headings, code blocks, tables, lists, and blockquotes with proper pagination.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Markdown syntax is supported?

The converter uses the Marked library and supports the full GitHub Flavored Markdown (GFM) specification: headings (H1–H6), bold, italic, strikethrough, inline code, fenced code blocks with language classes, blockquotes, ordered and unordered lists, task lists (checkboxes), pipe tables, horizontal rules, images, and hyperlinks.

How does the PDF export work?

When you click "Download PDF", the tool creates a fully styled HTML document with print-optimized CSS (@page rules for margins and size, page-break hints for code blocks and tables) and opens your browser's print dialog. Select "Save as PDF" as the printer to download the file. This produces the highest-quality PDF output possible.

Is my data sent to a server?

No. All Markdown parsing and PDF generation happen entirely in your browser. Your text never leaves your device, making it safe for private, sensitive, or confidential content.

What is the difference between A4 and Letter?

A4 (210 × 297 mm) is the standard paper size used internationally. Letter (8.5 × 11 in / 216 × 279 mm) is the standard in the United States and Canada. Choose the size that matches your region or printing requirements.

Can I use this for README files?

Yes. Copy your GitHub README.md content into the editor and download it as a PDF. All GFM-specific features like task lists and tables are fully supported.

Why does the PDF open a print dialog instead of downloading directly?

Using the browser's built-in print engine produces the highest-quality PDF with proper pagination, font rendering, and print CSS support. Modern browsers (Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Safari) all offer a "Save as PDF" option in the print dialog.
