Page to Markdown Scraper

About

Page to Markdown Scraper captures web page content and saves it as a clean Markdown file in a ZIP, ready to upload to ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or any other LLM.

VERSION 1.5.0 - NOW WITH BUILT-IN OCR

Three capture modes:

MANUAL MODE
Capture the current page with one click. Text, images, and metadata are extracted and downloaded immediately as a ZIP file.

AUTO MODE
Start a recording session, then browse normally. Every page you visit is captured automatically. A red border and REC badge show that recording is active. Stop the session to download everything in a single ZIP.

OCR MODE (NEW)
Extract text from screenshots using built-in optical character recognition. Works on content that normal scraping cannot reach: images, scanned documents, PDFs, canvas elements, and pages that block text selection.

- OCR Viewport: Capture and extract text from the visible screen area
- OCR Full Page: Auto-scrolls the entire page or PDF, capturing and recognising each section
- PDF support: Automatically detects PDF files and scrolls through the full document
- Keyboard shortcut: Ctrl+Shift+O (Cmd+Shift+O on Mac) for quick viewport capture
- Results panel: Shows word count and confidence score with a one-click download button

PRIVACY
- All processing happens locally in your browser. Nothing is sent to any server.
- OCR runs via Tesseract.js (WebAssembly) entirely on your device. No cloud APIs.
- No analytics, no tracking, no accounts, no data collection.
- Open source: https://github.com/SlambertDK/page-to-markdown-extension

OUTPUT
- content.md: Clean Markdown optimised for LLM upload
- images/ folder: All page images and OCR screenshots
- README.txt: Usage instructions
