Frequently Asked Questions
How do I convert HTML to Markdown?
Paste your HTML or drag and drop an .html file into the editor. Clean Markdown appears instantly as you type — copy it with one click or download it as a .md file. No signup or install needed.
Does it handle tables, images, and nested lists?
Yes. HTML tables become GitHub Flavored Markdown pipe tables, images keep their alt text and source, and nested lists, blockquotes, links, and code blocks are all preserved with correct indentation.
Can I control the Markdown style?
Yes. Choose ATX (#) or Setext headings, your bullet marker (-, *, or +), fenced or indented code blocks, inline or reference-style links, and asterisk or underscore emphasis — the output updates live.
Can I convert HTML copied from Word or Google Docs?
Yes. The "Clean Word/Docs HTML" option (on by default) strips the inline styles, Office namespace tags, comments, and wrapper markup those editors add, leaving clean readable Markdown.
Are scripts and styles removed?
Yes. Script tags, style blocks, comments, and other non-content markup are stripped automatically, so only the real content of the page is converted to Markdown.
Is my HTML uploaded anywhere?
No. The conversion happens entirely in your browser using JavaScript — nothing is sent to a server, so it is safe for private, internal, or unpublished documents.
