Frequently asked questions

Does the PDF show Markdown symbols?

No. The Markdown is rendered to HTML first, so supported headings, emphasis, lists and links appear as formatted content.

Will linked images always be included?

Images need to be reachable by the renderer; local relative files alongside an uploaded Markdown file are not automatically uploaded.

What is the difference between the themes?

Clean uses a restrained document style; GitHub applies styling familiar from rendered Markdown on GitHub. Neither changes the source text.

How large can a Markdown file be?

Guests can upload files up to 25 MB each. A free account raises the limit to 50 MB per file, and Premium allows 500 MB per file with larger batches.

Is my documentation private?

Uploads are encrypted in transit and automatically deleted after a short time.

Can I use this on Windows or Mac?

Yes. Conversion runs online, so upload the Markdown file from a modern browser.
