About PDFtoMD

PDFtoMD converts PDFs into clean, structured Markdown, which is the format most people actually want when a document has to enter a codebase, a docs site or an LLM context window. For digital PDFs it reads the real text layer rather than OCRing the render, so reading order is preserved and you do not get the scrambled characters and OCR noise that generic converters introduce. Structure detection maps headings, paragraphs and lists to proper Markdown syntax instead of returning an unformatted wall of text. Scanned and image-based PDFs are handled by a separate path: state-of-the-art OCR reads each page image, and a vision model can reconstruct tables, formulas and seals as structured Markdown — the vendor exposes this as a distinct vision mode alongside standard OCR, so you choose speed or structural fidelity per document. Conversion history is saved to the account, letting you re-copy or re-download any prior output from any device. The free tier works without sign-up on the homepage drop zone and gives 10 pages per day, which is enough to evaluate the extraction quality on your own documents before paying. Paid tiers raise monthly page volume and, importantly, the per-file page cap, which is what determines whether long reports convert in one pass.
