## About

## What it does
Markdown to PDF converts Markdown content into a PDF and gives you either a downloadable file or a signed S3 URL, depending on the endpoint you choose.

Send raw Markdown text, a Markdown file upload, or a URL that points to a Markdown resource. For URL-based conversion, the remote file must respond with `text/markdown` or `text/plain` and stay under 5 MB. For file uploads, the input must be `text/markdown`, `text/plain`, or a `.md` file, with a 3 MB limit. Raw Markdown accepts up to 5 MB.

Use Markdown to PDF when you need to render docs, README files, release notes, invoices, or generated reports into a shareable PDF format. The response is either a binary PDF download or a JSON object containing `data`, a signed S3 URL valid for 5 minutes.

Choose the output mode that fits your workflow: direct file download for immediate delivery, or a temporary URL when you want to store, forward, or process the generated PDF downstream.
