Frequently asked questions

Is this Markdown to Word converter free to use?

Yes, with no account, watermark, or conversion limit. It uses the open-source docx library to build the file directly in your browser.

Does my document get uploaded anywhere?

No. The .docx file is assembled entirely client-side — Markdown is parsed into tokens and mapped straight to Word document XML in memory, then downloaded as a file. Nothing is sent to a server. Two things do make direct browser requests, not a server relay: using "Open from URL" to fetch a remote file, and fetching any remote images your Markdown embeds so they can be included in the .docx.

What Markdown formatting is supported?

Headings (H1-H6), paragraphs, bold, italic, strikethrough, links, bullet and numbered lists (including nesting), inline code and fenced code blocks, blockquotes, simple tables, and horizontal rules.

Will the resulting .docx open correctly in Word, Google Docs, and LibreOffice?

Yes. The output is a standard Office Open XML (.docx) file, the same format Word itself produces, so it opens cleanly in any app that reads .docx.

Is this the same as "Markdown to DOCX"?

Yes — .docx is simply the file extension Word uses for its documents, so "Markdown to Word" and "Markdown to DOCX" describe the same conversion. See the DOCX section below for details on what gets mapped.

Can I edit the document after downloading it?

Yes. It's a fully native, editable Word document — not a locked export — so formatting, text, and structure can all be changed after download.

Markdown to DOCX

DOCX is the XML-based file format Microsoft Word uses to store documents — the same format this converter writes to when you click “Download .docx.” Instead of exporting a flattened image or a print-based PDF, this tool builds a real Office Open XML document: headings become native Word heading styles, bullet and numbered lists use Word’s own list numbering, tables become real Word tables with editable cells, and links stay clickable. That means the file opens in Microsoft Word, Google Docs, or LibreOffice Writer with every element still fully editable — nothing is a rasterized image or an uneditable snapshot.
