Word to Markdown

What survives DOCX conversion

Word heading styles become Markdown headings. Bold, italic, links, lists and simple tables retain their semantic structure. Embedded PNG, JPEG, GIF and WebP images can be saved alongside the Markdown in a ZIP. Document conversion runs in your browser without uploading the DOCX to a conversion server.

Formatting and file limits

Markdown does not preserve Word page layout, fonts, margins, headers or footers. Merged tables remain HTML because pipe tables cannot express merged cells. Complex equations, tracked changes and unusual image formats need a manual review. This converter accepts DOCX files up to 10 MB, not legacy DOC, password-protected documents or scanned PDFs.

Images in Markdown

Markdown refers to images by path rather than packaging them inside the document. The ZIP contains a Markdown file and an images directory. Keep them together when moving the document. Downloading only the MD file does not include its image files. External image links can still contact their original host when opened in a Markdown reader.
