About HTML and Markdown
HTML is rendered in a sandboxed document before printing to PDF.
Markdown is converted with a CommonMark-compatible parser.
HTML files are read by the convertexa engine that ships with this page, so the conversion is identical whether you use this tool or the general converter. The output is produced with the same codec settings for every visitor, which means the same input always produces the same result.
Limitations
- Presentational markup (inline styles, classes) is dropped.
Frequently asked questions
How do I convert a HTML file to Markdown?
Add your HTML file to the box above. convertexa detects the format from the file content, applies the HTML to Markdown conversion and gives you the result to download. The whole operation runs inside your browser.
Are my HTML files uploaded anywhere?
No. The conversion runs in a sandboxed worker on your own device. Your file never leaves the browser, and nothing is stored on a server.
Is the HTML to Markdown conversion lossless?
No. Markdown is a re-encoded format, so some data is discarded to reach the target format. HTML is rendered in a sandboxed document before printing to PDF.
Is there a size limit?
For reliable results keep the input under 25 MB. Very large files run out of memory in the browser rather than failing quietly.
Which browsers are supported?
Any current version of Chrome, Edge, Firefox or Safari on a desktop. The conversion engines need WebAssembly and Web Workers, both of which are standard since 2018.
