Quality and limitations
A practical view of where mdcraft is strongest and where review is still important.
Quality and limitations#
mdcraft is built for practical, editable results rather than pretending every file can be converted perfectly.
Where mdcraft is strongest#
- Markdown to PDF exports from well-structured Markdown
- DOCX to Markdown for documents with clear headings and lists
- text-first PDFs with readable section structure
- screenshots and scans that need fast OCR-based recovery into editable text
Where review matters most#
- scanned PDFs
- multi-column layouts
- visually complex designs
- dense tables
- documents with charts or diagram-heavy pages
What “good output” means here#
The goal is usable Markdown that is easy to review and improve, not fake precision.
That means mdcraft prefers:
- readable structure
- accurate section order
- clean lists and headings where confidence is high
- clear review points when the source is ambiguous
Recommended expectation#
- For clean text-first files, expect light cleanup.
- For scans and layout-heavy files, expect a review pass before publishing.
- For highly visual documents, expect that some content may need manual reconstruction.
Best practice#
Use mdcraft when you want a faster path to editable Markdown or polished Markdown exports, then do a short human review before final use.
