Frequently Asked Questions
Does this Markdown tool upload my content to any server?
No. The Markdown Exporter converts and renders content entirely in your browser. Your documents are never sent to our servers, ensuring privacy for drafts, technical notes, or confidential documents.
What Markdown features and extensions are supported?
The editor supports CommonMark Markdown including headers, bold, italic, strikethrough, code blocks with syntax highlighting, tables, blockquotes, footnotes, and task list checkboxes. Use the template presets for README, Blog Post, or Meeting Notes to get started quickly.
How do I export my Markdown document to PDF?
Click the Print / Save as PDF button in the toolbar, which opens your browser's native print dialog. Choose Save as PDF as the destination to get a formatted PDF — no server-side rendering required.
Markdown Parsing
Markdown is converted to HTML using the marked.js library, which supports CommonMark and GitHub Flavored Markdown (GFM). GFM adds: fenced code blocks, tables, strikethrough (~~text~~), task lists (- [x]), and autolinks.
Common Syntax
Headings use # prefix. Bold: **text**. Italic: *text*. Links: [label](url). Images: . Inline code: backtick. Block code: triple backtick with optional language name. Unordered lists use - or *.
Export to HTML
The rendered HTML export wraps the converted content in a complete HTML document with basic styling. The exported file is self-contained and can be opened directly in any browser without requiring Markdown software.
Limitations
Math equations (LaTeX) are not supported natively. Raw HTML embedded in Markdown is rendered by default. For complex documents with precise formatting, consider exporting to DOCX or PDF instead.
