SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Users need a reliable way to read and extract content from PDFs, office files, and scanned documents without manually copying messy text into notes or workflows.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Document-to-markdown conversion: Turns PDFs, images, PPTX, DOCX, XLSX, HTML, and EPUB into readable markdown for editing and reuse.
  • Quality modes for tough inputs: Use LLM-enhanced extraction for better tables/structure and force OCR to fix garbled text or enable inline math.
  • Scalability for large files: Low-DPI mode reduces memory usage and supports large documents with automatic retry fallbacks.

Quick Start

Ask your agent to run marker.sh on the file you want converted to markdown, producing the markdown output in your specified output directory.
