Convert a PDF into Markdown, keeping the structure rather than the visual styling. Headings, lists, emphasis and links become Markdown syntax, which makes the result easy to edit by hand, keep in version control, or feed into a static site generator or documentation system.
From the visual characteristics of the text - larger or bolder runs are treated as headings. A document that styles headings the same size as body text will not produce a useful heading structure.
Simple tables map onto Markdown table syntax. Anything Markdown cannot express - merged cells, nested layouts, positioned figures - is simplified or dropped, because the format has no way to represent it.
Markdown when the document structure matters and you plan to work with the result. Plain text when you only want the words.
