Markdown to HTML

What is a Markdown To Html?

Markdown is the easiest way to write formatted text, but websites, email templates and CMS fields often need HTML. This converter turns Markdown into clean HTML markup you can paste anywhere, shows a preview and lets you print the result or save it as a PDF from your browser's print dialog.

How to use it

  1. Paste or write Markdown.
  2. Copy the generated HTML, or view the rendered preview.
  3. Use print to create a PDF: choose Save as PDF as the printer.

Example

Input:

## Release notes

- **Faster** search
- Fixed [login bug](https://example.com/issues/42)

Run `npm update` to upgrade.

Output:

<h2>Release notes</h2>
<ul>
  <li><strong>Faster</strong> search</li>
  <li>Fixed <a href='https://example.com/issues/42'>login bug</a></li>
</ul>
<p>Run <code>npm update</code> to upgrade.</p>

Tips for good HTML output

  • Start document headings at the right level. If the page already has an h1, begin your Markdown with ##.
  • Add alt text to images: ![Chart of monthly sales](chart.png).
  • For printing, use clear headings and avoid very wide tables, which can be cut off on paper.

Security note

Markdown can contain raw HTML. If you convert Markdown written by other people and display it on a website, always sanitise the HTML, for example with DOMPurify, to prevent cross-site scripting.

Conversion runs in your browser; your text is not uploaded.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I convert Markdown to PDF?

Convert it here, then use the browser's print dialog and choose Save as PDF as the printer.

Is the generated HTML safe to put on my website?

For your own text, yes. For Markdown written by users, sanitise the HTML to prevent cross-site scripting.

Does it support tables and code blocks?

Yes. Common Markdown features, including tables, fenced code blocks, lists and links, are converted.

Why do my headings start at h1?

A single # creates an h1. Use ## if the page where you paste the HTML already has a main heading.
