Markdown to PDF, without uploading it

Turn Markdown into a clean, printable PDF - here in this tab, with nothing uploaded.

How to markdown to pdf

  1. Paste your Markdown or drop a .md file.
  2. Pick a page size and a typeface, and check the preview.
  3. Press Save as PDF and choose Save as PDF in the dialog.

Why this one stays private

Notes, reports and READMEs written in Markdown are often the working drafts people are least ready to share. Converting one elsewhere means uploading it first. Here the document is laid out by your own browser and saved from its print dialog, so the only copy of the PDF is the one you save.

Questions

Why does a print dialog open?

Because your browser is the best PDF engine on your computer: it lays the document out with real text, so the PDF is searchable and the links work. The dialog is where you choose Save as PDF instead of a printer.

Do tables, code blocks and task lists survive?

Yes. The Markdown is read as GitHub-flavoured Markdown, so tables, fenced code, strikethrough and task lists all come out formatted.

Can I control page breaks?

Headings never end up stranded at the foot of a page, and tables and code blocks avoid being split where they can. For a hard break, put a line with three dashes and choose 'Page break at ---' in the options.

What about images?

Images embedded in the Markdown as data URIs print as they are. Images linked from the web are not fetched - this page does not make requests on your behalf.
