What to expect from a PDF

  • Nothing is uploaded. A PDF is often the most sensitive file someone owns — a contract, a payslip, a medical letter. This converter runs as WebAssembly inside your tab, so the file is read by your own browser and never sent to a server.
  • A PDF records where each character sits on the page, not what it means, so expect a plainer result than the same document in Word: headings and paragraphs come through, while list numbering and table borders sometimes flatten into ordinary text. That is the format’s doing, not a setting you can change.
  • Scanned PDFs cannot be converted, and this tool says so instead of returning an empty file. If the pages are photographs of paper, there is no text inside to extract — that needs OCR, which is a different job.
  • No page cap and no queue. A long report converts in a few hundred milliseconds because nothing is waiting on a network round trip.

How it goes

  1. 01

    Drop the PDF in

    Several at once is fine. Files stay on your device throughout.

  2. 02

    Check the preview

    Compare the rendered view against your original before you trust it. If the PDF has no text layer, you get a clear explanation rather than a blank result.

  3. 03

    Copy or download the Markdown

    Copy it straight into your editor, or save it as a .md file.

Questions

Frequently asked questions Everything the first evaluation usually needs.

What if I'm already on Buffer / Pallyy / Publer?

Keep them. Run Postonus side-by-side for 30 days. Put your 3 best posts into a Growth Workflow. If it isn't earning its keep, cancel us — not them.

Does the AI write my posts?

No. You write the post. Postonus's AI re-fits your draft into each platform's native shape — character limits, tone, hashtag norms. You review every variant before it publishes. Voice profile keeps it sounding like you.

Which platforms do you support?

Fourteen: Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, LinkedIn, Facebook, X, Threads, Pinterest, Bluesky, Reddit, Telegram, Discord, Google Business Profile, and Tumblr. WhatsApp Groups support is in beta.

How does the free workspace and the 14-day trial work?

Sign up with no card and you get a free workspace: up to 3 connected channels, unlimited writing, and dated drafts on the calendar. Scheduling and publishing need a card. Adding one starts a 14-day trial on the plan you pick — nothing is charged until day 15, and your drafts are already there waiting.

Can I import from another tool?

Yes. Bulk CSV import handles up to 50 posts per file (multiple files OK). Direct-from-Buffer import is on the Q4 roadmap.

What happens if a post fails to publish?

Workers retry with exponential backoff. Failures show up in the Activity Feed with one-click retry. We email you only for unrecoverable failures (e.g. revoked token).
