Headings are detected by font size, with simple bullet lists and tables picked up where possible. This uses heuristics, not a full layout engine — complex or multi-column PDFs may need manual cleanup afterward.
Extract a PDF's text into clean Markdown, detecting headings by font size and picking up bullet lists and simple tables where they can be reliably detected. It uses heuristics rather than a full layout engine, so results are genuinely useful for notes and docs, not a pixel-perfect reproduction.
Markdown keeps a document's structure (headings, paragraphs, lists) as simple readable text. It pastes cleanly into wikis, GitHub, note apps and AI chat tools, which handle it far better than a raw PDF.
Complex layouts such as multi-column pages or tables built from separate text boxes may need some tidying afterwards, since PDFs store position rather than structure.
Not always — this uses font-size heuristics for structure, so multi-column layouts or heavily designed pages may need manual cleanup after conversion.
Simple tables that pdfplumber can detect are converted into Markdown tables; complex or borderless tables may not be detected.
