Convert documents to Markdown Run the anydoc CLI. It needs Node 20+ and no install: npx -y @firecrawl/anydoc < file

Markdown to stdout

npx -y @firecrawl/anydoc < file

-o out.md

write to a file

npx -y @firecrawl/anydoc - --format csv < f

read stdin

Rules: Supported inputs: .doc , .docx , .docm , .odt , .rtf , .epub , .pdf , .ppt , .pps , .pot , .pptx , .pptm , .ppsx , .ppsm , .odp , .xls , .xlsx , .xlsm , .xlsb , .ods , .csv . The format is detected from the file content. Pass --format only when detection cannot work: CSV from stdin, or a missing or wrong extension. Exit codes: 0 success, 1 the document could not be converted, 2 usage error. Failures print one anydoc: line to stderr. The CLI never prompts. For a large document, write to a file with -o and read the parts you need instead of streaming everything into context. Scanned and image-only PDFs need OCR, which anydoc does not do; they fail as unsupported. The hosted Firecrawl Parse API handles those. Inside a Node, Python, or Rust codebase, prefer the library over shelling out: @firecrawl/anydoc on npm, firecrawl-anydoc on PyPI, anydoc on crates.io. Each exposes the same to_markdown / toMarkdown API. Installs 1.0K Repository firecrawl/anydoc GitHub Stars 4.5K First Seen 2 days ago Security Audits Gen Agent Trust Hub Pass Socket Pass Snyk Pass
