Initial Release of markitdown

The MarkItDown library is a utility tool for converting various files to Markdown (e.g., for indexing, text analysis, etc.)

It presently supports:

  • PDF (.pdf)
  • PowerPoint (.pptx)
  • Word (.docx)
  • Excel (.xlsx)
  • Images (EXIF metadata, and OCR)
  • Audio (EXIF metadata, and speech transcription)
  • HTML (special handling of Wikipedia, etc.)
  • Various other text-based formats (csv, json, xml, etc.)

The API is simple:

from markitdown import MarkItDown

markitdown = MarkItDown()
result = markitdown.convert("test.xlsx")
print(result.text_content)
