A FEW THINGS TO KNOW

FAQ

Do I need to upload my file?

No. GetMDView reads files locally in your browser. Your Markdown is never uploaded to our servers, and you do not need an account. Images linked in a document may be loaded from their original websites.

Which file formats can I open?

Open .md, .markdown, .mdown and .txt files, or paste Markdown directly into the editor. Tables, task lists, strikethrough, automatic links, footnotes and fenced code blocks are supported.

How do I export Markdown to PDF?

Use Print / PDF in the preview toolbar, then choose Save as PDF in your browser’s print dialog. Only the rendered document is printed. You can also download HTML and print it later.

Where is my content stored?

Your latest Markdown and theme preference are stored in this browser’s local storage. They are not synced to other devices. Use Clear to remove your saved text. Private browsing or clearing browser data may remove it too.
