Challenges of Converting PDF to Markdown

PDFs are great for sharing, but hard to edit or reuse. Markdown is lightweight, structured, and perfect for docs, blogs, and collaboration.

However, getting a PDF into usable Markdown isn’t always smooth. Here’s why:

  • · Copy-pasting messes up paragraphs, lists, and code blocks.
  • · Headings and structure often disappear, making it hard to follow.
  • · Images and links usually don’t transfer and must be added again.
  • · Complex layouts and tables often get broken or lost.
  • · Existing tools are unreliable, some need installs or have limits.
