Frequently Asked Questions

Does the PDF preserve code syntax highlighting?

Yes! We use highlight.js to maintain syntax highlighting for over 180 programming languages in the PDF export. Your code blocks will look exactly as they appear in the live preview, with full color syntax highlighting preserved.

Are there any file size limits?

No limits! Since conversion happens entirely in your browser using jsPDF and html2canvas, you can convert documents of any size. Very large documents (100+ pages) may take a few extra seconds to process, but there's no hard limit.

Does it support images and tables?

Absolutely. Images (including base64-encoded inline images and external URLs), GitHub Flavored Markdown tables, and all standard markdown formatting are preserved in the PDF output with proper styling.

Is my content uploaded to a server?

No. All conversion happens client-side in your browser. Your documents never leave your device, ensuring complete privacy. No registration, no tracking, no data collection.

Can I export Mermaid diagrams to PDF?

Yes! Mermaid diagrams (flowcharts, sequence diagrams, Gantt charts, etc.) are fully supported and will be rendered as graphics in your PDF export.

What about LaTeX math equations?

Math equations written in LaTeX syntax (using $ or $$) are rendered using KaTeX and preserved in the PDF as high-quality graphics.

Is the PDF format customizable?

The PDF export uses optimized default styling that looks professional out of the box. The styling matches the preview you see in the editor, ensuring consistency.

Do I need to install any software?

No installation required! Markdown Studio runs entirely in your web browser. It works on Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge. Just open the website and start converting.
