PDF to Markdown
Get any file to the size you need. Privately.

About this tool
PDF to Markdown extracts the text layer and writes a Markdown file on this device. Headings are not detected with perfect confidence; you get a readable text dump you can edit. Scans without a text layer produce little, and the tool does not OCR them quietly. Use this when you want notes in a text editor without handing the PDF to a chat site.
PDF to Markdown stays on this device. The download is the copy you keep, and Weesize does not store a second one. Close the tab when you are finished and the bytes are gone.
- No upload: the text file is written here, not pasted into an online converter.
- Speed: the file does not travel to a server and back, so the wait is only the work itself.
- Quality: the original is kept when the new file would be worse or is not actually smaller.
