Welcome to MarkdownPad

A distraction-free markdown editor with a live preview and a print-quality PDF export — no account, no upload, nothing leaves your browser.

Export to PDF

Hit PDF in the toolbar to open the export panel. You get a real paper preview and a handful of controls:

Setting	Options
Paper size	A4, Letter
Margins	Compact, Normal, Roomy
Text size	Small, Normal, Large
Page breaks	None, Chapters, Sections
Title block	Title, date and word count

Headings stay glued to the paragraph beneath them, code blocks and tables never split across a page, and the text stays selectable and searchable in the finished file.

Everything else

• Live preview — GitHub Flavored Markdown, rendered as you type
• Syntax highlighting — 190+ languages via highlight.js
• Dark & light themes — the PDF always exports on white paper
• Exports — .pdf, .html and .md

interface ExportOptions {
  paper: "a4" | "letter";
  margin: "compact" | "normal" | "roomy";
}

function exportPdf(options: ExportOptions): void {
  console.log(`Printing on ${options.paper}`);
}
