Notes on moving Markdown into email, documents, spreadsheets and PDFs — what breaks, why, and how this converter handles it.
Removing formatting is easy; removing only the formatting is not. A field-by-field look at what a naive conversion discards — list numbers, link URLs, code languages, alt text — and why lossless is the better default.
How to turn Markdown into a PDF with selectable text, which print-dialog settings actually matter, why the Scale control sometimes disappears, and how running headers and footers work.
A Markdown table pasted into a spreadsheet lands in one cell. Tab-separated output fixes it. Here is how the three table modes differ and when each one is the right choice.
Plain text is not always what you want. How rich-text conversion works, why the clipboard needs two flavours of the same content, and what to expect in Word, Google Docs, Gmail and Outlook.
Email clients do not render Markdown. This is why an AI-drafted reply arrives full of asterisks, which parts matter most to preserve, and how to get clean text without losing your numbering.
