Recognize .md (markdown) files when drag-drop or Open... +some more...

[zarkogajic]

Hi Support,

The "New - From Markdown" nicely converts markdown files into PDF.

Simply dragging-dropping an .md file or using Open... to open an .md file will do a conversion as if the file is a "plain text" file.

Could you adjust how Open... works so .md files are auto-recognized as markdown files (so not to need to go into "New - From Markdown" )? (or some other known extension should be used instead of ".md"?)

Also, when adding multiple markdown files into the "Convert Markdown To PDF" dialog -> all files will end up merged in a single PDF - not in multiple PDFs: one .PDF per one .MD. An option to specify if "merge" or "one by one" would be ideal...

Hello, zarkogajic

Thank you for the report, I have passed this along to the Dev team to be looked at.

As for the option to create multiple new documents, as that would be a batch process, It would be something that PDF-Tools offers. If you need to convert *.MD files in a batch to individual PDF's, the "Convert files to PDFs" tool would be the answer.

Kind regards,

[zarkogajic]

Thanks Daniel.

Pretty cool functionality.

I often have the MarkDown copied into the clipboard. And I need to insert it into the PDF document. Think about this use case.

Table support is important.
