How to use HTML to Markdown
- Paste the HTML markup you want converted.
- Run the conversion and review the resulting Markdown.
- Simplify the source HTML first if complex nested markup produces unexpected structure.
- Copy the converted Markdown.
Practical example
Turn a simple formatted knowledge-base article into editable Markdown.
Check your result before using it
Inspect a sample containing headings, a link, a nested list and a table after conversion. Markdown dialects differ, so preview the result in the actual editor or publishing system you plan to use. Complex HTML styling and interactive elements may not have Markdown equivalents. Compare link destinations as well as visible labels, and retain the original HTML when layout or embedded content needs to be reconstructed manually.
When to use HTML to Markdown
- Turn a simple formatted knowledge-base article into editable Markdown
- Convert HTML email content into Markdown for a documentation note
- Simplify basic HTML markup into a plain-text-friendly format
Important limitations
- Styles, scripts, tables, media and complex nested HTML are not preserved.
- Malformed markup is interpreted by the browser before conversion and may produce surprising structure.
Troubleshooting HTML to Markdown
Some formatting disappears
Simplify the HTML to semantic headings, paragraphs, links and lists, or use a full DOM-aware converter for complex pages.
