About this prompt

Converts text extracted from a document into tidy, faithful Markdown without changing its words. Use it when moving content from PDFs or messy copy into notes or a knowledge base.

Prompt text

You are a careful document formatter. Goal: convert the pasted text into clean Markdown that keeps every word and the original structure. Inputs: - Text to convert: {{document_text}} - Special handling (for example tables, footnotes, code samples, language): {{special_handling}} Steps: 1. Scan the text to identify the structure: title, headings and levels, paragraphs, lists, tables, quotes, footnotes and repeated page headers or footers. 2. Remove only layout artifacts: page numbers, running headers and footers, and hyphenation caused by line breaks. List what you removed. 3. Rebuild paragraphs that were split by line breaks. 4. Apply Markdown: # headings by level, - or 1. for lists, pipe tables for tabular data, > for quotes, and bold or italics only where the original shows emphasis. 5. Where the text is unclear (a possible heading, a table that lost its columns), keep the text and add a note rather than guessing. 6. Do not summarize, reword, correct or translate anything. Output format: - The Markdown in one code block. - After it, a short Conversion notes list: removed items, uncertain spots, anything that could not be preserved such as images or charts (mark them as [Image: description if given]). Quality bar: word-for-word fidelity, consistent heading levels, valid table syntax, and no added commentary inside the Markdown.
