Example session with this skill installed
Convert the attached Q3_Revenue_Report.pdf to markdown. It has three pages and one table on the second page. Just give me the markdown content.
- Read your context and instructions
- Compiled the file to markdown
I have processed Q3_Revenue_Report.pdf. The file contains a text layer across all 3 pages. One pipe table was detected and extracted from page 2.

# Q3 2024 Revenue Report

|:---|---:|---:|---:|
| North America | 45.0 | 48.5 | +7.7% |
| EMEA | 32.0 | 35.2 | +10.0% |
| APAC | 28.5 | 29.1 | +2.1% |

Next steps
- I can re-run this with HTML table tags if you need to preserve specific cell padding or alignment.
- Would you like me to extract the summary into a separate JSON file for your database?

What you get
About this skill
Turn any document into Markdown you can actually use — in your wiki, README, RAG pipeline, or note-taking workflow.
What it converts: PDF (text-layer and scanned), Word (.docx/.doc), Excel (.xlsx/.xls), CSV/TSV, TXT/MD/RTF.
What you get: Clean GFM Markdown with preserved heading hierarchy, pipe tables (or HTML tables for merged cells), nested lists, code blocks, hyperlinks, and Markdown footnotes. Every output file is self-describing via YAML frontmatter — source filename, page count, table count, and a notes: field documenting any inference or correction.
Why it's different:
OCR with honesty. Scanned PDFs are processed at 300 DPI with per-page confidence reported. Regions under 70% confidence are flagged — never silently transcribed. If OCR fails entirely, you get an image description and a warning, not fabricated text.
No hallucination. If a page is missing, a table is unreadable, or a chart can't be parsed, it says so. Every output traces back to the source.
No silent drops. Every page, sheet, and section is either converted or explicitly noted as skipped.
Deterministic. Same input + same options → same Markdown. Reproducible across runs.
Edge cases handled: Multi-sheet workbooks, merged cells (rowspan/colspan), lettered lists, page-count mismatches, running headers/footers, DOCX tracked changes, CSV encoding fallbacks (UTF-8 → BOM → cp1252 → latin-1), multi-column reading order, and password-protected files (asks for the password rather than cracking).
Ideal for: developers ingesting docs into RAG, writers migrating notes, legal/ops teams converting archives, anyone who needs a document as text without losing structure.
Install: Drop the SKILL.md into ~/.claude/skills/file-to-markdown/. Claude Code picks it up automatically. Invoke with /file-to-markdown or just upload a file and say "convert this to Markdown."
