About the Markdown to PDF Converter

Markdown is where documentation, release notes, meeting minutes and half the internet’s notes are written. Sending one to someone who does not work in Markdown means handing over a file full of hashes and asterisks.

Paste the Markdown and get a laid-out PDF. Headings are sized by level, bulleted and numbered lists are indented properly, block quotes are set in italic and indented, fenced code blocks are set in a monospaced face, and horizontal rules are drawn as lines. Pages break where they should and can be numbered, and the document title comes from the first heading. Choose the page size, typeface and text size. Everything runs in your browser.
