About this tool
What this converter does
Copying formatted text between applications is where formatting goes to die: a web page pasted into an editor brings hidden styles, and pasting as plain text loses the structure entirely. This tool is the middle path: paste rich text or HTML from any source and get clean Markdown that keeps headings, links, lists, and emphasis while dropping the styling noise.
It converts on your machine, in the browser, with nothing uploaded, and works with content copied from web pages, emails, Word, Google Docs, and most other applications that put rich text on the clipboard.
How to use Paste to Markdown
- 1
Copy from anywhere
Select content in a web page, email, or document and copy it; the clipboard carries the rich formatting along.
- 2
Paste and convert
Paste into the input area. The rich text and HTML are translated to Markdown: headings, links, lists, bold, and italic all survive.
- 3
Use the clean result
Copy the Markdown into your notes, docs, or CMS, free of fonts, colors, and other styling baggage.
Good to know
- Output uses standard conventions: # headings, dash bullets, fenced code blocks, and inline links.
- Visual styling like fonts, colors, and text sizes is removed on purpose; Markdown keeps structure, not decoration.
- The conversion is client-side, so the pasted content never leaves your browser.
FAQs
Common questions
Which sources paste well?
Web pages, emails, Word, and Google Docs all put HTML-flavored rich text on the clipboard, which converts cleanly. Terminal output and code editors usually copy plain text, which passes through as-is.
How is this different from the HTML to Markdown tool?
That tool fetches a live page by URL. This one converts whatever is already on your clipboard, which also makes it the right choice for content behind logins that a fetcher cannot reach.
Do links and images survive the conversion?
Links become standard Markdown links. Images referenced by the copied HTML become image syntax pointing at their original address; the files themselves are not downloaded.
