Convert MARKDOWN to PDF

Markdown is a lightweight markup language with a plain text formatting syntax, primarily used in Markdown documentation files with the MD extension. Created by John Gruber and Aaron Swartz in 2004, it allows IT professionals to easily format text for web pages, readme files, and technical documentation. Markdown's simplicity and readability make it ideal for collaborative projects and version control systems. Its syntax is designed to be readable without compromising the document's formatting when rendered as HTML or other web formats.

The Portable Document Format (PDF) is a file extension created by Adobe Systems in 1993 to facilitate document exchange across different systems. PDFs preserve the formatting of source documents, making them ideal for sharing text, images, and graphics in a consistent manner. Commonly used for forms, manuals, e-books, and reports, PDF files are platform-independent, ensuring the content appears the same on various devices and operating systems. This versatility has solidified its status as a standard in digital documentation, enhancing both compatibility and security in file sharing.
