Troubleshooting

Common issues and how to fix them.


No files found in folder

  • Make sure the folder contains supported files: .md, .txt, .docx, .jpg, .jpeg, .png, .webp, or .gif
  • Files inside subfolders are not included — only files directly in the selected folder
  • Check that files have the correct extension and are not hidden

Conversion fails for a specific file

  • Try opening the file in another app to confirm it is not corrupted
  • For markdown files, very unusual syntax or deeply nested structures may not render correctly — simplify the file and retry
  • For images, confirm the file is not truncated or in an unsupported variant (e.g. CMYK JPEG)
  • The app logs each file’s result in the conversion log — check there for the specific error

Combined PDF is in the wrong order

Files merge in alphabetical filename order. If the order is wrong:

  • Add numeric prefixes to filenames: 01_intro.md, 02_chapter.md
  • Use zero-padded numbers to ensure correct sort: 01, 02, 10 rather than 1, 2, 10

Images appear too small or blurry

  • The app scales images to fit the page width at screen resolution
  • For sharper output, use higher-resolution source images (at least 150 dpi at the final print size)
  • Try switching to Full page mode in Auto-pair settings if the image is being constrained by inline flow

Emoji or multilingual text looks wrong

  • Keep Windows and the Microsoft Edge WebView2 Runtime up to date
  • Batch Text to PDF bundles its emoji font; no separate emoji-font download is required
  • If a specific writing system or emoji sequence is still missing, send the exact text and the generated PDF to support

Output folder not found

  • The output subfolder is created automatically inside your input folder — you do not need to create it first
  • If you changed the subfolder name to an absolute path, change it back to a simple name like pdf
  • Check that you have write permission to the input folder

App won’t start or crashes on launch

  • Check that Windows is up to date; the app requires Windows 10 or later
  • Reinstall the app from the Microsoft Store if the issue persists
