Markdown to Word

Paste markdown, get a Word file. Headings stay headings, tables stay tables, and you can open the result in Word, Pages or LibreOffice and carry on editing.

The result appears here as you type.

Converted in your browser. Nothing is uploaded.

How it works

  1. Your markdown is rendered to HTML, then wrapped in a Word-readable document with a stylesheet that maps headings, code, tables and quotes to sensible Word formatting.
  2. The download is a .doc file. Word, Pages and LibreOffice all open it and convert it to their own format the moment you save.
  3. If you would rather paste than download, use Copy for Word: it puts formatted content on your clipboard, ready to paste straight into a document.

What it does not do

  • The download is .doc, not .docx. A true .docx would need a zip writer and a full OOXML mapping in the browser, which would be a large download for a result that looks the same once Word has opened it.
  • Images referenced by URL are linked rather than embedded, so Word will fetch them when it opens the file.

Questions

Is my markdown uploaded?

No. The conversion runs in your browser with code that is already part of this page. There is no upload endpoint on this site, so the file cannot reach us even in principle. Open your browser's network tab and watch: no request carries your document.

Will Word complain about the file format?

Some versions ask to confirm the format on opening, because the file is HTML inside a Word wrapper. Choose yes. Saving from Word turns it into a normal .docx.

What about markdown to docx specifically?

Same page, same button. Open the downloaded file in Word and use Save As, Word Document (.docx). That is one click and gives you a genuine .docx rather than an approximation.
