Convert Markdown to Word: download an editable DOCX file that keeps headings, lists, tables and links. It runs in your browser.
What is Markdown to Word?
Markdown to Word is a free online tool that converts Markdown to a real DOCX document that opens in Word and other editors. The file is created in your browser and keeps headings, lists, tables and links.
What it supports
- Headings, formatted text, numbered and bulleted lists, tables, links and code, inline or fenced.
- A genuine .docx file, not HTML renamed to look like a document.
Good to know
- Images are not embedded, and raw HTML, math and diagrams are left out. The alt text of an image remains.
- Only DOCX is created, not the older DOC format.
- Word applies its own styles, so the page layout is not designed from your Markdown.
How do I use Markdown to Word?
- Paste your Markdown or open an MD file.
- Check the approximate preview and press Generate .docx.
- Download the DOCX and open it in Word or another editor that reads DOCX.

Is my content sent to a server?
No. Your content and files are processed in your browser and never uploaded. OCR and PDF reading download processing files, including OCR language data and the PDF worker, from this same site only when those tools run; no content goes to third parties. Markdown previews show external images as alt text instead of loading them.
Copying puts a result on your clipboard and downloading saves it as a file, but only when you press the button. The file is created in your browser, so nothing is uploaded.
