What sources can I paste from?

You can paste from virtually any source that copies rich text or HTML, including Microsoft Word, Google Docs, web pages, emails, and most other applications.

How does paste detection work?

When you paste content, the tool checks your clipboard for HTML content. If HTML is found, it converts it to Markdown. Otherwise, it uses the plain text from your clipboard.

Are images converted?

Images in pasted content are converted to Markdown image syntax, but they reference the original URLs. The actual image files are not uploaded or stored.

Can I customize the output format?

Yes, you can choose between different bullet styles (-, *, +), link formats (inline or reference), and heading styles (ATX # or Setext underline).

Is my pasted content secure?

Absolutely. All conversion happens directly in your browser using JavaScript. No data is ever sent to any server.

What if the conversion looks wrong?

Try the manual paste button which reads directly from clipboard. Some applications copy content in different formats that may work better with manual paste.
