What this page processes
Markdown format guide is designed for Choose a Markdown output format based on where you will edit, deliver, or publish next. After you add the input, the page creates the supported structure and provides a copy, download, or next-step workflow.
What to review in the output
Review heading levels, content boundaries, lists, tables, code blocks, links, images, and the complete ending. Complex layouts or unsupported formats need a manual check.
Failures and limits
A request can fail because of a login wall, paywall, anti-bot rule, dynamic loading, missing readable content, or an unsupported input. Read the error first, then choose HTML paste, a local file tool, the browser extension, or local OCR when that boundary fits better.
Privacy and next step
Local file tools process files in this browser and do not require the original file to be uploaded to Herdown. Web tools process only the public address you submit, and the result can be copied, downloaded, or sent to the next tool.
