Description

Office documents and PDFs can be previewed as Markdown-style text in the terminal. It is useful for users who want to inspect document content quickly without opening a full office suite.

Document conversion may omit complex formatting, macros, images, or layout details. Treat the output as a readable preview, not a guaranteed faithful replacement for the original file.

How to run
