    In File Explorer or on the desktop, select one Markdown file or as many as you like.

    Hold Ctrl and drag

    Hold Ctrl (or the key you set in Filee) and drag the files. A donut of formats opens at the cursor. Prefer menus? Right-click and choose Convert with Filee.

    Drop on PDF

    Release the files over PDF. A progress ring counts up, and each PDF file is saved next to its original.

What Filee does for Markdown → PDF

Headings, lists (including task lists), tables, code, quotes, links, images, footnotes and math are laid out on A4 pages, without Pandoc, LaTeX or a browser. A quick way to share notes and README files with people who don't read Markdown.

  • Built in: works right after installing Filee, with nothing else to download.
  • The merge preset combines all dropped files into one PDF.
  • Batch: one file or hundreds, converted in parallel; a failure never stops the rest.
  • Private: files are converted on your PC and never uploaded, even without internet.
  • Saved next to the original, or in a folder and with a file name pattern you choose.

Markdown can also become

  • HWPX
  • DOCX

About Markdown and PDF

Markdown

Markdown is a lightweight plain-text markup: # for headings, * for lists, ** for bold. It is popular for notes, README files and documentation, and is readable even without rendering.

Extensions: .md .markdown

All text and markup formats

PDF

PDF document

PDF is the standard for sharing documents that must look the same everywhere: fonts, layout and images are fixed and it opens on any device. That also makes PDFs hard to edit.

Extensions: .pdf
