MarkItDown = a tool from Microsoft to convert Word / Excel / PPT / PDF... to Markdown github.com/microsoft/mark…

@python_tip Very strange PDF support: it’s just a paper thin pdfminer wrapper.

@python_tip I turned the Microsoft conversion tool into a webapp that runs on your device. Check it out getmarkdown.com

@python_tip Another wrapper repo… can’t believe even Microsoft is in on it.

@python_tip people acting like pandoc.org wasnt already doing this for a decade obsidian community knows

@python_tip Unfortunately, the formats ['.xls', '.xls', '.wb3', '.doc', '.spo', '.opt', '.rvt', '.vsd', '.msi', '.pub', '.mtw', '.ac_', '.dot', '.pps', '.ppt', '.xla', '.wiz', '.sou', '.wps', '.apr', '.msc', '.adp', '.db', '.wdb', '.xlr', '.suo'] are not supported.

@python_tip Written mostly in HTML, yeah!

@python_tip Microsoft could have a tool to turn turds into gold and I still wouldn’t use it. Oh wait they do, windows, a turd that makes gold.
