  • Links

    Preserved

    links stay clickable in the PDF; check external destinations before sharing.

Frequently Asked Questions

  1. 1

    Can I convert a .md file to PDF?

    Yes. Upload a .md or .markdown file, review the rendered document, and download the resulting PDF.

  2. 2

    Does the converter support GitHub Flavored Markdown?

    It supports common GFM features such as tables, task lists, code blocks, and other standard Markdown structures. Review the preview when your document uses more complex formatting.

  3. 3

    Can I edit my Markdown before creating the PDF?

    Yes. You can edit the Markdown in the browser before generating the final PDF.

  4. 4

    Why do some tables or code blocks look different in the PDF?

    PDF pages have fixed dimensions, so very wide tables and long code blocks can behave differently from a scrolling web page. Review the preview and adjust the Markdown when needed.

  5. 5

    Is my Markdown uploaded to a server?

    The converter processes your Markdown locally in your browser, so your content is not uploaded or permanently stored on MDConvertHub servers.
