Is my text uploaded to a server?

No. All conversion happens in your browser using pdf-lib. Your text never leaves your device.

What font is used in the PDF?

The PDF uses Helvetica, a standard font built into every PDF reader. It renders cleanly at any zoom level without embedding extra font data.

How does the tool handle paragraphs?

Blank lines between blocks of text are treated as paragraph breaks. Each paragraph is separated by a small vertical gap in the PDF. Single line breaks within a block are preserved.

Is there a size limit for the text?

There is no hard limit, but very large texts (several megabytes) may take a few seconds as the browser builds the PDF entirely in memory and paginates all lines.

Can I read the PDF on a Kindle?

Kindle devices support PDF natively, so you can transfer the downloaded file via USB or the Send to Kindle service and read it directly.

Does the converter support images or rich formatting?

This tool converts plain text only. Markdown, HTML tags, and other markup are treated as literal text characters. For rich formatting, use a dedicated word processor or Markdown-to-PDF tool first.
