Can I extract images from the PDF?

Yes, select 'Markdown with images' in the output options to include image references in the generated Markdown.

How do I convert only specific pages?

Use the 'Pages' input field to specify a range or list of pages, such as '1,3,5-7'.

What does the 'Use Struct Tree' option do?

It utilizes the tagged structure of the PDF (if available) to better understand headings, paragraphs, and lists, resulting in more accurate Markdown formatting.

Can I remove sensitive information during conversion?

Yes, enabling the 'Sanitize Sensitive Data' option will attempt to mask or remove sensitive information during the extraction process.

Will the output show where pages end?

Yes, if you enable 'Include Page Separators', the Markdown output will include markers indicating the original PDF page breaks.
