Frequently Asked Questions

Is the text in the generated PDF selectable and searchable?

Yes, unlike some PDF generators that create image-based PDFs, our tool creates PDFs with fully selectable and searchable text. This makes it easy to copy content from the PDF or search for specific terms within the document.

Can I convert large Markdown documents to PDF?

Yes, the tool can handle large documents. However, very large documents may take longer to process and render. For optimal performance with large documents, we recommend breaking them into smaller sections if possible.

How do I include images in my PDF?

You can include images in your Markdown using the standard Markdown syntax: ![Alt text](image-url.png). The images will be rendered in the preview and included in the final PDF. For best results, use web-accessible image URLs or data URLs.

Can I customize the styling of the PDF output?

Currently, the tool uses a clean, professional styling for PDF output based on the Markdown preview. We plan to add more customization options in future updates, including custom CSS, headers/footers, and page numbering.

Is my Markdown content stored on your servers?

No, all processing happens entirely in your browser. Your Markdown content is never sent to our servers, ensuring complete privacy and data security. The PDF generation also happens client-side using JavaScript libraries.

How do I create tables in my PDF document?

You can create tables using standard Markdown table syntax. For example:

markdown
| Header 1 | Header 2 | Header 3 |
|----------|----------|----------|
| Cell 1   | Cell 2   | Cell 3   |
| Cell 4   | Cell 5   | Cell 6   |

This will be rendered as a properly formatted table in both the preview and the final PDF document.
