Frequently Asked Questions
What happens to HTML elements without a direct Markdown equivalent?
Structural containers like <div> and <span> are stripped while preserving their nested text content and formatting. Elements like <hr> are converted to Markdown horizontal rules (---).
Can I paste rich text directly from a web page?
Yes. You can paste HTML copied from websites, CMS editors, or email newsletters to convert them to clean Markdown.
