What it is AI-extracted, prompt v1, taxonomy v1, 2026-08-30, confidence not recorded

A JavaScript tool that parses PDF files and converts them into Markdown format, built on top of Mozilla's pdf.js. It is available as a hosted web app and is being modularized to separate the parsing logic from the frontend.

Use cases

  • convert a pdf document to markdown
  • parse pdfs into markdown text
  • extract markdown from pdf files
  • turn pdf documentation into markdown for a wiki
  • batch convert pdfs to md files

When to avoid

  • you need high-fidelity conversion of complex layouts, tables, or scanned pdfs
  • you need OCR for image-only pdfs
  • you need a maintained CLI or API with strong guarantees
