Narraloud

Markdown to PDF converter

Paste anything: notes, a report, a story draft, a Markdown file. Headings, emphasis, lists, and tables are kept, and the result saves as a clean PDF with real selectable text. Nothing you paste leaves your browser.

How the PDF is made

The page reads your paste as Markdown (plain text works too, paragraphs split on blank lines), lays it out in a clean book design with a title page, and asks your browser's own print engine to write the PDF. Choose "Save as PDF" as the destination in the print sheet that opens. Because a real typesetting engine does the work, the output is selectable, searchable text, not an image of text. Want an ebook instead? The same paste works in the Markdown to EPUB converter.

Made for saving AI answers too

Markdown is what AI assistants like ChatGPT and Claude produce when you copy a long answer. Paste one here and it keeps its headings, lists, and tables instead of collapsing into plain text, so a research answer or a generated guide becomes a tidy PDF you can keep.

Private by construction

Pasted text is often the private kind: drafts, journals, notes, work documents. This tool has no server side at all. The conversion runs in the page you are looking at, works offline once the page is loaded, and keeps no copy of anything.

Then press play on it

We build Narraloud, an iPhone and iPad app that reads PDFs, EPUBs, web articles, and scanned pages aloud in natural voices that run entirely on the device. The word counter below your paste shows what your text amounts to as listening time. Let Narraloud read it to you.
