FAQ

What carries over from .pptx to .md?
Structure maps across: headings, paragraphs, lists, links, tables, code blocks, and inline emphasis. Anything that depends on the source presentation layer can be simplified or dropped, including page layout, fonts and colors, comments and tracked changes, and deeply nested or merged tables. Review those areas before you publish the result.
What are the file limits?
Accepted file types are .pptx. Each file must be 10 MB or smaller.
Is my content private?
Processed on mdedit.ai servers. Uploaded files are stored in a private S3 bucket (not publicly readable). Uploads use signed URLs, and results are provided via time-limited signed download links. Files are automatically deleted after 30 days.
