Frequently Asked Questions
Headings (h1 through h6), bold and italic text, links, images, ordered and unordered lists, inline code and code blocks, blockquotes, horizontal rules, and paragraphs. More specialized or deeply nested HTML structures may not convert perfectly and could need manual cleanup afterward.
Basic HTML tables are not converted to Markdown tables by this tool, and layout-only structures like CSS grid or flexbox containers have no Markdown equivalent at all, since Markdown is a content format, not a layout format. For complex layouts, focus on extracting the text content and re-applying structure by hand.
Markdown is plain text, so it is easier to read and edit directly, works well in version control diffs, and is the native format expected by many blogging platforms, wikis, and documentation tools. Converting cleans up formatting noise that often comes from copying content out of a web page or word processor.
