PanWriter is a free, open-source, distraction-free Markdown editor with tight pandoc integration for importing and exporting many document formats (docx, HTML, LaTeX, EPUB, PDF). It features a paginated preview pane that shows page breaks and layout adjustments in real time.
Use cases
- write markdown with a paginated print preview
- convert markdown to docx or latex without the command line
- import a word document and edit it as markdown
- export markdown to epub or pdf
- distraction-free writing app for essays and reports
When to choose
- you write in Markdown but need to deliver Word, LaTeX, EPUB, or PDF documents
- you want pandoc's conversion power behind a simple GUI
- you need to preview page breaks and print layout while writing
When to avoid
- you need rich WYSIWYG word-processing features like fonts and styles editing
- you don't want to install pandoc separately for most export formats
- you need collaborative or cloud-based editing
