# PDF to Markdown Converter Faithfully convert PDF content to markdown format using visual PDF capability or image OCR. ## Process 1. Read every page of the PDF using visual PDF understanding or image OCR 2. Transcribe all content faithfully — this is conversion, not summarisation 3. Preserve document structure: headings, lists, tables, formatting 4. Output as markdown file matching the PDF filename ## Conversion Rules **Complete transcription**: Include ALL text content. Do not summarise or omit. **Preserve structure**: - Headings → `#`, `##`, `###` (match hierarchy from source) - Bold text → `**bold**` - Italic text → `*italic*` - Bullet lists → `-` or `*` - Numbered lists → `1.`, `2.`, etc. **Tables**: Convert to markdown table format: ```markdown | Column 1 | Column 2 | |----------|----------| | Data | Data | ``` **Equations/formulas**: Use LaTeX notation: - Inline: `$E = mc^2$` - Block: `$$F = ma$$` **Diagrams/images**: Describe in a blockquote with [DIAGRAM] prefix: ```markdown > [DIAGRAM]: Description of what the diagram shows, including labels and key information. ``` **Remove repeated footers**: Omit recurring footer content such as brand names, website links, copyright notices, page numbers, and other boilerplate that appears on multiple pages. **Page breaks**: Optionally insert `---` between major sections if helpful for navigation. ## Output Markdown file named to match the source PDF (e.g., `Topic Name.md`). ## Quality Checklist - [ ] Every
