Help & Documentation

Yes. MdReader is completely free with no subscriptions, no premium tiers, no watermarks, and no account required. You can convert Markdown to PDF, HTML, and DOCX, use the live editor, and render Mermaid diagrams without paying or signing up. There is no artificial daily conversion cap for normal browser use, so students, indie developers, and teams can export documentation whenever they need it. If you need help choosing a workflow or reporting a bug, use the contact form.

By default, MdReader converts Markdown in your browser so drafts, README files, and internal docs stay on your device. That is the privacy-first path most users want for quick PDF or HTML export without uploading sensitive notes to a third-party converter. For very long documents you can optionally use a configured render server to speed generation — you control when that path is used. We do not sell document contents, and day-to-day editing does not require uploading files to a MdReader account. For privacy questions, use the contact form.

MdReader supports GitHub Flavored Markdown (GFM), including headings, bold and italic emphasis, ordered and unordered lists, task lists, tables, fenced code blocks with syntax highlighting, blockquotes, links, and images. That covers typical README files, developer docs, and notes copied from GitHub. Mermaid diagram code fences are also supported in live preview and export. If a specific GFM edge case fails to render, send an example via the contact form so we can reproduce it.

Yes. MdReader is a responsive web app that works on phones and tablets as well as desktop browsers. You can paste Markdown, preview formatting, and export to PDF, HTML, or DOCX without installing a native app. On smaller screens the editor and preview stack for readability; on larger screens you get a side-by-side layout. For the most comfortable long-document editing, a tablet or desktop is still ideal, but quick conversions work well on mobile.

You can export to PDF for sharing and printing, semantic HTML for blogs or CMS paste-in, and Word DOCX for editable documents in Microsoft Word, Google Docs, or LibreOffice. PDF export uses your browser print pipeline.

Yes. MdReader is a Markdown converter with built-in Mermaid diagram support. Add fenced mermaid code blocks for flowcharts, sequence diagrams, state diagrams, class diagrams, Gantt charts, and pie charts. Diagrams render in the live preview and are included when you export to PDF or HTML, which is the main difference versus many paste-only Markdown tools that drop diagrams or require a separate renderer. If a diagram type fails to render, share the Mermaid source with us via the contact form.
