## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability image-to-markdown-converter-0fecb269 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you convert this PNG image of a multi-page invoice into Markdown? It has tables with line items and I need the reading order preserved — the locale is en-US.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you have a document-like image (scanned page, screenshot, photo of a form) and need structured Markdown output with tables and reading order preserved. Prefer this over plain OCR endpoints when you need Markdown formatting rather than raw text. If the input is a PDF rather than an image, use the sibling PDF-to-Markdown endpoint instead.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid base64 encoding returns a validation error
- Unsupported content type (not image/jpeg or image/png) returns an enum validation error
- Image too large (exceeds ~10MB base64 limit) returns a size error
- Non-document images (photos of scenes, people) may produce poor or empty markdown
- Handwritten text may be partially or incorrectly converted
- Complex multi-column layouts may lose reading order fidelity

## How this service works

Convert a document-like image into Markdown while preserving reading order and tables.

## Output

Returns Markdown-formatted text derived from the input image, with document structure (headings, paragraphs, lists) and tables preserved in reading order. The output is suitable for downstream text processing, storage in a knowledge base, or display in a Markdown renderer.
