Convert Typora Markdown to PDF, Word or HTML
Typora saves ordinary .md files, so converting one takes no export step at all.
Convert Markdown to PDF
Markdown source
Typora files are already plain Markdown
Typora is a WYSIWYG Markdown editor: you see formatting as you type rather than a split source-and-preview view. What it writes to disk, though, is an ordinary .md file. There is no proprietary format and no export needed — you can drop the file straight onto this page.
Typora does have its own export menu, and if you only need a PDF it works well. People generally come looking for a converter for one of two reasons: they want a Word file with real styles, or they are on a machine without Typora installed and still need to read or convert a document.
A few Typora conventions are worth knowing. Documents often begin with a YAML frontmatter block between --- lines, which holds metadata such as the title rather than content, and is left out of the converted document. Footnotes are supported in Typora but are not yet handled here — you get a note saying so rather than silent loss. Inline maths written with dollar signs stays as literal text, since PDF and Word have no shared equation format.
Everything else converts cleanly: headings, emphasis, tables with alignment, fenced code blocks with syntax highlighting, task lists and images referenced by URL. Mermaid diagrams, which Typora renders natively, render here too — as vector graphics in the PDF.
How to convert a Typora document
Find the .md file
Typora saves plain Markdown, so the file on disk is already what you need — no export required.
Drop it in
Drag the file onto the converter above, or copy the document from Typora and paste it.
Choose a format
PDF, Word, HTML or plain text, then download.
Every format, from the same file
Typora to PDF
Produces a paginated PDF with real, selectable text rather than a screenshot of a preview. Headings are never orphaned at the foot of a page and long tables repeat their header row across breaks.
Typora to Word
Produces a .docx using native Word heading styles, so the navigation pane and automatic tables of contents work and a colleague can edit or comment on it normally.
Typora to HTML
Produces one self-contained HTML file with the stylesheet inlined — no external assets to host, so it opens correctly from a USB stick or an email attachment.
Typora to plain text
Lays the note out for a fixed-width reader: underlined headings, tables as aligned columns, prose wrapped at 80 columns. Useful for pasting into a ticket or an email.
Typora to PDF, Typora markdown to PDF, Typora export to Word
Typora exports PDF and HTML itself, so the searches that bring people here are usually about Word, or about converting a document without having Typora open. Because Typora saves plain .md files, any Markdown converter works on them — including this one, with no export step.
Questions
Do I need Typora installed to convert its files?
No. Typora saves ordinary Markdown, so the .md file works anywhere. That is the advantage of the format.
Why use this instead of Typora's own export?
For Word files with real heading styles, or when you are on a machine without Typora. For PDF alone, Typora's export is perfectly good.
What happens to my YAML frontmatter?
It is treated as metadata rather than content and left out of the converted document, which is almost always what you want — it holds the title and tags, not the text.
Are footnotes supported?
Not yet. You get a visible note saying footnotes were left out rather than losing them silently. Support is planned.
Do Mermaid diagrams work?
Yes. They render as real diagrams — vector in the PDF, an embedded image in Word, and inline SVG in HTML.
