Getting started

A quick guide to the studio, the two main workflows, and how to evaluate mdcraft first.

Getting started#

mdcraft has two main workflows:

1. Markdown to PDF#

Use this when you already have Markdown and want a polished export with a live preview.

Typical fit:

  • docs and technical notes
  • reports and proposals
  • study notes
  • share-ready PDFs from clean Markdown

2. Files to Markdown#

Use this when your source file is a PDF, DOCX, JPG, or PNG and you want editable Markdown back.

Typical fit:

  • text-first PDFs
  • DOCX files with headings, lists, and tables
  • screenshots, scans, and simple page captures

What usually works best#

  • DOCX is usually the cleanest starting point for Files to Markdown.
  • Text-first PDFs generally convert better than heavily designed or scanned PDFs.
  • Images and scans rely on OCR, so they should always be reviewed before publishing.
  1. Upload or paste the source file.
  2. Review the generated Markdown in the editor and preview.
  3. Fix headings, lists, tables, or code blocks if needed.
  4. Export or copy the final result.

Plan basics#

  • Free: a limited number of Files to Markdown conversions each day
  • Plus: a larger daily allowance
  • Pro: unlimited conversions

Markdown exports remain unlimited on every plan.
