Markdown is plain text with light formatting, which makes it ideal for documentation kept in version control. Converting to it moves content out of a fixed-layout file and into something diffable and editable.
Usually, from font size and weight, but check them. Structure inferred from appearance is never perfect.
Simple tables convert to Markdown tables. Complex ones need manual work.
They are extracted and referenced, and must be kept alongside the Markdown.
These tools handle one document at a time. When the job is thousands of files, Greenbooks handles document digitization as a managed service, including bulk scanning, OCR and metadata capture, with the output loaded into DocuVenta DMS. Talk to us about volume work.
