AnyMarkdown

DOCX to Markdown

Drop a Word document and get GitHub Flavored Markdown back. Headings keep their levels, lists keep their nesting, tables become pipe tables, and footnotes are carried over as Markdown footnotes.

How it works

  1. Drop your file on the box above, or click to choose one.
  2. The converter loads once, about 1.8 MB, and runs in this tab. Your file is not uploaded.
  3. Copy the Markdown, or download it as a .md file.

Questions

What is the difference between .docx and .docm?

Only the macros. A .docm is a .docx that is allowed to carry VBA. Both parse identically here, and macros are ignored rather than executed.

Are Word comments included?

No. Comments live outside the document body and are dropped, so the Markdown matches what you would see when printing the document.

Is my file uploaded to a server?

No. The converter is a WebAssembly build of the anydoc engine that runs inside your browser tab. Your file is read into memory, converted, and discarded when you close the page. Nothing is transmitted, stored, or logged.
