Frequently asked questions

What does the Markdown look like?

Headings become # / ## / ###, bullet and numbered lists become Markdown lists, and body text becomes clean paragraphs.

Why convert PDF to Markdown for AI?

Markdown preserves document structure (headings, lists) in plain text, so ChatGPT, Claude and other AI tools understand your document far better than pasted raw text.

Does it work on scanned PDFs?

Scanned pages are images without text — use the AI Super OCR tool first, then convert the result.

Is it free?

Yes — free forever, no watermark, no signup.
