Why convert Markdown to PDF?

Markdown to PDF is the workflow for sharing technical notes, READMEs, and meeting minutes outside of GitHub. PDFs print cleanly, look identical on every device, and don't require the reader to know what Markdown is. This page renders your .md as a PDF that preserves the document hierarchy your headings imply.

We do a lightweight Markdown render: # to ###### become bold headings at decreasing sizes, dash- and number-list items render with bullets, and inline emphasis markers (**bold**, *italic*, `code`) are stripped to plain text. Complex Markdown (tables, code blocks with syntax highlighting, embedded images, footnotes) won't render with full formatting - for that, a dedicated tool like Pandoc on the desktop is a better fit. Everything stays in your browser.

About Markdown

Markdown is plain text with lightweight syntax for headings, lists, bold, italics, code, and links. The de-facto format for READMEs, notes, and developer docs.

PDF

About PDF

PDF is the universal document format - looks the same on every device, prints reliably, and is the canonical way to share images that should stay fixed in layout.
