Frequently asked questions
What is a .md file?
A .md file is a plain-text Markdown file, the format used by GitHub READMEs, Obsidian notes, Notion exports, and most AI tools. It's readable as text, but the # and ** symbols only turn into real headings and bold when a converter like this one processes them.
How do I convert MD to PDF?
Drop any .md file into the converter (a README, an Obsidian note, a Notion or GitHub export), or paste its contents. Then click "Save as PDF". The result opens in any PDF reader, print-ready.
Why does my .md file show # symbols and asterisks in other apps?
Markdown is plain text with formatting symbols: # marks a heading, ** marks bold, and | builds tables. Editors like Word or Google Docs display those symbols literally instead of rendering them. This converter turns the symbols into real document formatting.
Is this MD to PDF converter free?
Yes. It's free with no signup, no daily cap, and no watermark. Conversion runs entirely in your browser, so your text is never uploaded or stored.
Is my text private?
Completely. The conversion happens locally in your browser with JavaScript. Nothing is sent to a server, so you can safely convert confidential work documents.
How does the PDF export work?
The converter builds a print-perfect version of your document and opens your browser's print dialog. Choose "Save as PDF". Page breaks avoid splitting tables and code blocks.
