Convert a PDF file to Markdown

Converts a PDF file to Markdown.

Example
This Flow reads a contract (PDF file) from OneDrive, converts it to Markdown, splits the text into chunks, generates embeddings for each chunk, converts the generated vector into a SQL Server-compatible format and stores the text, vector, and document reference in a SQL Server table. This table can then be used for vector search or to feed chat models with the extracted information.

Properties

Name	Required	Description
Title	No	The title of the action.
File Data	Yes	Specifies the source of the PDF file, which can either be a Stream or a Byte Array.
Result variable name	Yes	The name of the variable in which the result will be stored.
Description	No	Additional notes or comments about the action or configuration.

Returns

This action returns a string/text in markdown format.

Note

For best results when converting PDFs with complex content (e.g., tables, images, or multi-column layouts), it is recommended to use Adobe "Convert a PDF file to a non-PDF file" instead of the "Convert a PDF file to Markdown" action.
