Text to Markdown: clean output from rich text and HTML
Turn Word/Docs/email into text to Markdown instantly
Paste formatted text, email bodies, or HTML snippets and get text to Markdown that is ready for Git, docs, and wikis.
The text to Markdown conversion runs locally (usable after caching offline) with Turndown + Markdown preview, so your content never leaves the browser.
Why you need this text to Markdown tool
Built for fast, local, clean text to Markdown without upload risk:
- Privacy-first: no uploads; everything in this text to Markdown flow runs in your browser.
- Rich-text aware: tables, links, bold/italics/strikethrough, images, and code blocks stay in the text to Markdown output.
- GFM friendly: pipe tables and fenced code stay compatible with GitHub and docs after text to Markdown.
- Instant preview: sanitized HTML preview shows what your text to Markdown output renders like.
- One-step workflow: paste, copy, or download the .md file in seconds with text to Markdown.
Where text to Markdown saves time
- Designers: send design specs or review notes (with strikethrough/bold edits) through text to Markdown and hand off to dev wikis/tickets.
- Developers: turn API change emails, Confluence snippets, or HTML docs into text to Markdown, keeping code blocks and tables for README/PR/CHANGELOG.
- Students: move lecture notes or lab reports from Word/HTML into text to Markdown for versioned notes; keep sup/sub placeholders, images as links, formulas to add later.
- Web/landing copy: grab snippets and run text to Markdown for quick edits or version comparisons.
How to run text to Markdown
- Paste rich text, HTML, or plain text into the input, or upload .rtf/.docx/.doc/.html (single file ≤2MB) for text to Markdown.
- The tool auto-detects HTML and applies clean text to Markdown conversion; if HTML fails it falls back to plain text.
- Review the text to Markdown output; copy or download as .md. If you need Markdown to plain text, just copy the output into a text editor.
- Check the preview to confirm headings, lists, tables, and code render well after text to Markdown.
What it handles well
- Tables convert to Markdown pipe syntax with headers in the text to Markdown output.
- Bold/italic/strikethrough/links/images carry over from rich text or HTML; sup/sub can use inline HTML in text to Markdown.
- Code blocks stay fenced with language hints; inline code is preserved in text to Markdown.
- Line breaks and paragraphs remain readable; for sizing, prefer headings/bold over forced font sizes in text to Markdown.
FAQ: text to Markdown
Does it upload my content?
No. All conversion runs in your browser; closing the tab clears the data.
Will tables survive?
Basic tables convert to Markdown pipes. Complex merged cells are flattened for readability.
Can I paste HTML snippets?
Yes. HTML is auto-detected and processed with Turndown to Markdown, including code and tables.
Will strikethrough, superscript/subscript, or font size survive?
Strikethrough via ~~text~~ is kept; bold/italic remain. Sup/sub can use inline <sup>/<sub> for broad compatibility. For font size, use headings or bold—forcing sizes is not portable in text to Markdown.
How do I convert formatted text to Markdown online?
Paste or upload .rtf/.docx/.doc/.html (≤2MB) and the text to Markdown engine converts locally—no upload needed.
Can editors like Sublime convert pasted content?
Use this browser text to Markdown first, then paste the Markdown back to Sublime/VS Code. Editor plugins exist, but this text to Markdown flow is zero-setup.
Can I run text to Markdown locally/offline or reverse to plain text?
Once loaded, the text to Markdown page runs locally without sending files. To reverse, copy the Markdown output into a plain-text editor or save the .md and strip formatting.
Privacy & limits
Runs fully client-side; no servers or accounts involved—your text to Markdown stays on your device.
Best for paste-sized documents; very large pages may convert more slowly in text to Markdown.
