How to Use the Markdown to PDF

  1. Type or paste Markdown into the editor.
  2. Choose a font size (default 13px).
  3. Click Generate PDF or press Ctrl+Enter.

The tool renders your Markdown as styled HTML, captures it as a high-resolution image, then embeds it into a multi-page A4 PDF. This means all formatting — headings, bold/italic, code blocks, tables, blockquotes, lists, links, horizontal rules — is pixel-perfect.

Limitation: The PDF contains rasterised text (image-based), so text is not selectable in the PDF. For selectable text, use a dedicated Markdown editor.

What is Markdown to PDF?

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this support code syntax highlighting?

Yes. Fenced code blocks with language identifiers are syntax-highlighted in the PDF output.

Can I customize the PDF styling?

CipherKit applies clean default styling. For custom styles, you'd export to HTML first and apply CSS, then convert to PDF.

Is my Markdown processed locally?

Yes. CipherKit renders Markdown to PDF entirely in your browser using jsPDF and marked.js. Your content never leaves your device.
