Questions
Is my EPUB file uploaded anywhere?
No. The epub to markdown conversion runs in your browser, on your own device. The file never leaves it.
How do I convert EPUB to Markdown?
Drop the file on this page, check the preview, and press Download Markdown. The conversion runs in your browser in a second or two.
Which Markdown is written?
GitHub-flavoured Markdown: # headings, *bold, italic*, ~~strike-through~~, lists, task lists, tables with alignment and fenced code blocks. It reads the same on GitHub, Obsidian, Notion and in static site generators.
What happens to pictures?
They are saved as files in an images folder and linked from the Markdown, with both in a ZIP. Tick "Pictures inside the Markdown" to keep a single .md file with the pictures embedded instead.
Can it open books with DRM?
No. Books bought from the Kindle, Apple or Kobo stores are usually locked to their apps. Books without DRM - from Project Gutenberg, Standard Ebooks, publishers who sell DRM-free, or your own - convert fully.
Is my file uploaded?
No. Everything happens in your browser, so the file never reaches a server. It works offline once the page has loaded.
