About DOCX to Markdown

Convert a Word document to Markdown, HTML or plain text without uploading it. The converter reads the .docx file in your browser and keeps headings, nested lists, tables, links, footnotes and images, so notes, specs and reports move into a README, a wiki or a static site with the structure intact.

Key Features

Headings, bold, italic, strikethrough, inline code and code blocks follow your Word styles
Nested bullet and numbered lists keep their depth and starting numbers
Simple tables become pipe tables; merged cells fall back to HTML with rowspan and colspan
Images embed as data URIs or download in a ZIP with an images/ folder
Footnotes, endnotes, hyperlinks and optional Word comments carry over
Output as Markdown, HTML or plain text, copied or saved as .md, .html, .txt or .zip

Use Cases

Move an internal runbook from a shared drive into a GitHub README or wiki
Turn a SOC 2 policy draft from legal into Markdown for a docs site
Convert a product spec so it can be reviewed in a pull request
Import a Word-written blog post into a static site generator
Pull meeting notes and tables out of a .docx for a Notion or Obsidian vault

docx to markdown no upload

Does it work with old .doc files, and is my document uploaded?

Nothing is uploaded: the file is unzipped and converted by JavaScript in this tab. Old binary .doc files are a different format, so open them in Word or LibreOffice and choose Save As .docx first. Password-protected files cannot be read and show a clear message instead of garbled output.
