## What Our Markdown to Word Converter Supports

### Text Formatting

All standard markdown formatting converts cleanly to Word:

| Markdown Syntax | Result | Word Output |
|-----------------|--------|-------------|
| `**bold**` | **bold** | Bold text preserved |
| `*italic*` | *italic* | Italic text preserved |
| `~~strike~~` | ~~strikethrough~~ | Strikethrough preserved |
| `\`code\`` | `inline code` | Monospace with shading |
| `***both***` | ***bold and italic*** | Combined formatting |

Mix and match freely: **bold with `inline code`** and *italic with ~~strikethrough~~* all convert to Word with formatting intact.

### Tables with Rich Formatting

Markdown tables convert to Word tables with professional styling — bold, italic, and code formatting inside cells are preserved with smart column widths.

| Metric | Q1 2026 | Q2 2026 | Change |
|--------|--------:|--------:|-------:|
| **Revenue** | $12,450 | $14,320 | +15.0% |
| **Users** | 8,340 | 11,200 | +34.3% |
| **Conversion** | 3.2% | 4.1% | +0.9pp |
| **NPS Score** | 72 | 78 | +6 |

### Math Equations with LaTeX

Write LaTeX math in your markdown and get properly formatted equations in Word.

**Inline math:** The quadratic formula $x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}$ renders inline with surrounding text.

**Block equations:**

$$
\int_{-\infty}^{\infty} e^{-x^2} dx = \sqrt{\pi}
$$

$$
\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{1}{n^2} = \frac{\pi^2}{6}
$$

### Code Blocks with Syntax Highlighting

Fenced code blocks convert to Word with monospace fonts and proper indentation:

```javascript
// JavaScript example — converts perfectly to Word
async function convertToDocx(markdown) {
  const parsed = parseMarkdown(markdown);
  const doc = buildWordDocument(parsed);
  return await doc.toBlob();
}

const blob = await convertToDocx(markdownContent);
saveAs(blob, 'document.docx');
```

```python
# Python example — code formatting preserved in Word
import pathlib

def read_markdown(filepath: str) -> str:
    """Read a .md file and return its contents."""
    return pathlib.Path(filepath).read_text(encoding="utf-8")

content = read_markdown("README.md")
print(f"Read {len(content)} characters")
```

### Lists and Nested Lists

**Ordered lists:**
1. Copy your markdown text into the editor
2. Preview the formatted output on the right
3. Download as a Word document (.docx)
4. Open in Word — all formatting is preserved

**Nested lists with multiple levels:**
- **AI tools output**
  - ChatGPT responses with tables and code
  - Claude conversations with formatted content
  - Gemini outputs with structured data
- **Developer workflows**
  - GitHub README files and documentation
  - VS Code markdown files and notes
  - Technical specs and API documentation
- **Academic writing**
  - Research papers with LaTeX equations
  - Thesis chapters with citations
  - Lab reports with data tables

### Blockquotes and Citations

> Blockquotes convert to Word with proper indentation and left-border styling. Use them for citations, callouts, or important notes in your document.

> **Tip:** You can paste markdown from ChatGPT directly into this editor. The AI's response formatting — headers, bold text, numbered lists, code blocks — all convert to a clean Word document.

### Images

Images embedded in your markdown are included in the Word document:
