Colleagues, clients and schools often want a Word document. This converts your Markdown into a .docx with real Word headings (so the navigation pane and table of contents work), bold and italics, links, bulleted and numbered lists, quotes, code and tables.

Open the result in Microsoft Word, Google Docs or LibreOffice and keep editing.

How to use the Markdown to Word (DOCX) tool

  1. Add a Markdown file

    .md, .markdown or .txt.

  2. Convert

    Your document is converted in a moment.

  3. Download and edit

    Open the .docx in Word, Google Docs or LibreOffice.

Tips

  • Use # for the title and ## for sections: they become Word Heading 1 and 2.
  • Images aren't embedded yet: insert them in Word afterwards.
  • Apply a Word theme to restyle everything at once.
