This workflow converts content copied from Word, rather than opening a DOCX file. When your browser provides formatted clipboard HTML, it is converted to Markdown. Plain-text pastes retain text and paragraph spacing, but cannot recover Word styles, comments, or tracked changes.
Input
Copied Word content
Output
Markdown (.md)
Your converted content will appear here.
Use this workflow when you can copy the relevant text directly from Word and want a Markdown draft. It converts clipboard content rather than reading a DOCX upload. Use normal formatted paste if your browser provides it; plain-text paste gives the converter fewer structural details.
The workspace starts with this sample. Replace it with your content to preview your own conversion.
Project handover Copy your own content from Word to preserve clipboard formatting where available. - Check the heading levels - Review the links

The starter is plain text with explicit Markdown list markers. Its wording and paragraph spacing remain intact; the first line is not automatically promoted to a heading. Your own formatted Word paste may provide HTML heading and list structure, which the converter can then map into Markdown.
Confirm heading levels and link destinations after pasting. Plain text cannot reveal the Word styles that were removed during copying. Comments, tracked changes, and document page settings are not imported. Images and complex tables need separate inspection before you use the Markdown elsewhere.
Some browsers or paste modes provide only plain text. Markdown cannot recover styling from that text. Use a normal formatted paste where available, or add # and ## heading markers yourself. Images, complex tables, comments, and tracked changes need separate review.
Open in Editor transfers the converted content to a new QuillAid document in this browser tab. It does not download a file first. You can edit locally, or sign in to save edits to your account.
