Choosing a format
Which export do you actually need?
Markdown is a way of writing structure in plain text: ## Heading for a section, **bold** for emphasis. It stays readable as raw text, which is why it travels well — but almost nobody wants to receive it that way. The format you export to depends on what happens to the document next.
Choose it when
Anyone needs to read it exactly as you laid it out — job applications, client deliverables, anything printed or archived.
The catch
Generated by your browser’s print engine, so margins and page breaks follow your print settings. Chrome and Edge are the most predictable.
DOCX
Choose it when
Someone has to edit it in Word, or an application portal demands a Word file. Headings and lists arrive as real Word styles, not bold text.
The catch
Word applies its own default fonts. Check the result before sending it somewhere that matters.
HTML
Choose it when
You’re publishing to a CMS, pasting into an email builder, or want clean semantic markup to style yourself.
The catch
You get structural markup, not a finished stylesheet. Bring your own CSS.
Plain text
Choose it when
Formatting is the problem — pasting into a form that mangles symbols, or stripping syntax before feeding text to something else.
The catch
Structure is flattened. Tables in particular lose their alignment.
What the converter supports
Handled
Headings H1–H6 · bold, italic and strikethrough · inline code · fenced code blocks with language labels · blockquotes · nested ordered and unordered lists · tables · horizontal rules · links and images.
Not supported
Footnotes · definition lists · math notation · diagram blocks such as Mermaid · task-list checkboxes. Nothing is saved between visits either — there is no server and no account, so download your file before closing the tab.
New to the syntax? The Markdown cheat sheet covers everything above with examples, and how the converter works explains why none of it touches a server.
