Extract Web Article Content Into Clean Markdown

Copying text out of a webpage is messy: navigation, ads, and sidebars come along. This tool extracts the main article content from a URL and returns it as tidy Markdown, ready for documentation, notes, or republishing.

The extraction identifies the core content of the page and strips the chrome around it, producing a clean Markdown version you can edit.

What gets extracted

The main body text, headings, links, lists, and images of the article are converted to Markdown. Menus, ads, footers, and sidebars are excluded when extraction succeeds.

When extraction struggles

Pages that render content entirely with JavaScript, or pages with many paywall and cookie overlays, may extract poorly. If the result looks incomplete, the page may not be suitable for this method.

How to Convert a Document to PDF with URL to Markdown

This tool takes a document file and produces a PDF that looks the same on every device.

1

Add Your Document

Drag your document file onto the upload area. The tool reads the file structure including text, tables, and any included images.

2

Choose Output Options

Select what to include and how the finished PDF should be laid out. The preview shows how your document will appear as a PDF.

3

Convert and Download

Click the convert button, wait for processing to finish, then download the PDF. The output keeps its formatting so it displays correctly everywhere.

Frequently Asked Questions

Images that are part of the article are referenced in the Markdown output.
The tool extracts content for your own use. Respect the rights of the original publisher before republishing anything.
Heavy JavaScript, paywalls, or unusual page structures can block extraction. Try a page with standard article markup.
It works best on article-style pages with clear content structure, rather than web apps or interactive pages.

Your Privacy Matters

All files are processed locally in your browser. Nothing is uploaded to our servers. Your documents stay on your device and are never accessible to us or anyone else. You can verify this by disconnecting from the internet after the page loads — the tool will still work perfectly.
