Using PDF to Markdown

Convert a PDF text layer to Markdown with page markers and inferred headings. Edit the result in a plain-text editor.

Worked example

Turn a procedure PDF into a draft for a documentation repository. Use the page markers to check the reading order against the original, especially where sidebars or two columns interrupt body text.

Will diagrams and hyperlinks survive the conversion?

Images and original links are omitted. Headings are inferred from font size, so inspect large captions and title pages. A scan needs recognized text before its words can be exported.
