Markdown for Word

**Markdown Export for Word** converts your Word documents to Markdown - and Markdown back into fully formatted Word text - with a single click, right inside Word. Everything runs locally on your device: no upload, no account, no cloud.

### What it does

- **Save as Markdown** - export the whole document as a .md file in one click.

- **Copy as Markdown** - copy your selection, or the entire document, to the clipboard.

- **Save as…** - set the file name before saving, with a live preview of the result.

- **Paste Markdown** - insert Markdown into your document as formatted Word text at the cursor.

- **Diagrams become images** - paste a Mermaid flowchart and it is inserted as a picture, with no extra tools.

### What stays intact

Headings, bold and italic, links, bulleted and numbered lists (including nested), tables, inline code and code blocks, and horizontal rules are all preserved during conversion.

### Who it is for

- **Developers and technical writers** moving content between Word and READMEs, wikis, repositories or documentation sites.

- **Consultants and knowledge workers** who publish to a CMS, static site generator or team wiki such as Azure DevOps, Confluence or GitHub.

- **AI users** who need clean Markdown for prompts and tools — and want the results back in Word.

- **Anyone handling confidential documents** - in legal, finance, healthcare or the public sector - where content must never leave the device.

- **Students and researchers** switching between Word and Markdown-based notes.
