Batch PDF to Markdown Converter
Convert multiple PDFs into clean Markdown. Choose local Regular Mode or Advanced OCR Mode, then download completed results as a ZIP.
Batch workflow
Convert multiple PDFs without uploading them
The batch page keeps the same local conversion model as the single-file tool, with queue controls added for heavier workflows.

Select PDFs
Choose several text-based PDFs from your device or drop them into the upload area.

Watch the queue
Each file gets its own status, progress, error state, and retry action.
3
Review Markdown
Open any completed file to inspect and edit the Markdown before downloading.
4
Download the batch
Download individual .md files or package completed results into a ZIP.
Batch conversion modes

Batch PDF to Markdown FAQ
Practical limits for browser-based batch conversion.
Are batch PDFs uploaded to a server?
Regular Mode does not upload files. Advanced Mode uploads PDFs for OCR and saves completed results for 24 hours.
Why does the queue convert one file at a time?
PDF parsing can use significant memory. Sequential conversion keeps the browser more stable, especially on laptops and mobile devices.
What happens when one PDF fails?
The failed file keeps its own error state and the queue continues with the next PDF. You can retry failed files after the active queue finishes.
Does the ZIP include failed files?
No. The downloadable ZIP includes completed Markdown results. Failed file details are kept in the task record.
Does batch conversion support scanned PDFs?
Yes. Choose Advanced Mode to use OCR. Credits are charged by successfully recognized page.
