Preview

The preview appears here as soon as you add some Markdown.

In the print dialog, choose Save as PDF. If your browser ignores the page size or margins, set them there.

Your text and files stay in your browser. Nothing is uploaded.

How it works

  1. Open or paste your Markdown. The preview shows the formatted document.
  2. Pick A4 or Letter, set the margins, the font and the text size.
  3. Press the print button, then choose Save as PDF as the destination in your browser’s print dialog.

When it helps

  • Turning meeting notes, a CV or a report written in Markdown into something you can send.
  • Producing a printable copy of documentation or a README.
  • Handing in coursework or an essay that you write in plain text.

What it does

  • A4 and US Letter, with margins from 5 to 40 mm.
  • Sans-serif, serif or monospaced text, with adjustable size and line spacing.
  • Headings, lists, tables, quotes and code blocks keep their structure, and tables and code are kept from splitting across pages where they fit.
  • Nothing is uploaded: the page is laid out on your device.

Good to know

The PDF is created by your browser’s print function, not by a DailyBox server, so you finish in the print dialog by choosing Save as PDF. Chrome and Edge apply the page size and margins directly. If your browser ignores them, set the paper size and margins in the print dialog. Page numbers and headers are added by the print dialog, not by this tool. Images load from their web address when the page is printed.

Questions people ask

How do I convert an MD file to PDF?
Open the file here, check the preview, then press the print button and choose Save as PDF. The file is named by your browser.
Why does it open a print dialog?
Printing to PDF is how the browser turns the page into a PDF without uploading anything. It keeps your document on your device.
Can I use Letter instead of A4?
Yes. Choose Letter for US paper or A4 for most other countries, and adjust the margins to taste.
Will tables and code blocks survive?
Yes. Tables keep their borders and header row, and code blocks keep their spacing and wrap long lines instead of running off the page.
