Question 1

What HTML elements are converted to Markdown?

Accepted Answer

The converter handles headings (h1-h6), paragraphs, bold and italic text, links, images, ordered and unordered lists, blockquotes, code blocks (inline and fenced), tables, horizontal rules, and line breaks. Complex HTML like nested tables may require manual adjustment.

Question 2

Will images be preserved when converting HTML to Markdown?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Image tags are converted to Markdown image syntax: ![alt text](image-url). The image files themselves are not downloaded or embedded; the URL references are preserved as-is from the original HTML.

Question 3

What should I do with HTML that has inline styles?

Accepted Answer

Markdown does not support inline CSS styles. The converter strips style attributes and preserves only the semantic structure. If you need to retain styling, you can keep the original HTML elements or use an HTML-aware Markdown renderer.

Question 4

What Markdown flavor does the output use?

Accepted Answer

The output uses CommonMark, the standardized Markdown specification, which is widely supported by GitHub, GitLab, VS Code, Notion, and most modern Markdown editors. GitHub Flavored Markdown (GFM) extensions like tables are used where appropriate.
