Markdown to PDF
A4
Why Convert Markdown to PDF?
Markdown is great for writing but not ideal for sharing with non-technical audiences. Converting your Markdown to a polished PDF gives you a professional, print-ready document that anyone can open — no Markdown renderer required. Perfect for reports, proposals, documentation handoffs, and resumes written in Markdown.
Features
- Full Markdown support — headings (h1–h3), bold, italic, lists, blockquotes, links, and horizontal rules.
- Upload .md files — drag and drop or browse for existing Markdown files.
- Page size options — choose A4, Letter, or Legal page dimensions.
- Custom title — set the PDF document title and filename.
- Clean typography — headings use bold Helvetica with appropriate sizing.
- Instant download — the PDF is generated on the server and ready immediately.
How It Works
The Markdown content is sent to the server where it is parsed line-by-line. Headings, lists, blockquotes, and paragraphs are each rendered with appropriate font sizes and formatting using pdf-lib with Helvetica fonts. The result is a multi-page PDF with proper word wrapping, heading hierarchy, and paragraph spacing.
Supported Markdown Syntax
- Headings — # h1, ## h2, ### h3 with scaled font sizes.
- Emphasis — **bold** and *italic* text (rendered as plain text in PDF).
- Lists — unordered (- item) and ordered (1. item) lists with bullet points.
- Blockquotes — > quoted text with a leading bar character.
- Horizontal rules — --- rendered as a separator line.
- Links — [text](url) with the link text preserved.
