02 / what you get

What happens to your data

Kept

  • Headings, bold and italic, lists, tables, footnotes and links are kept as real structure
  • GitHub-style Markdown (tables use | pipes) for README files, notes apps, static sites and documentation

Good to know

  • Fonts, colors, page size, headers, footers and comments are not part of this format and are dropped.
  • Only the text structure is kept, so the result will not look like the printed page.
  • If the document has pictures, you get a ZIP with the .md file and a media folder. Without pictures you get a single .md file.
  • Password-protected documents are not supported.
  • Files up to 300 MB are accepted.
