Live Markdown to Word Converter User Guide
Powered by the Pandoc engine, this tool turns plain-text Markdown into a fully-styled .docx file in seconds. The guide below walks you through the entire journey—from the first paste to the final polish inside Microsoft Word.
Markdown & Word Essentials
Markdown is a lightweight markup language created in 2004 to make web writing fast and intuitive. It is human-readable, works in any text editor, and powers everything from GitHub READMEs to technical blogs.
Microsoft Word is the de-facto standard for professional document creation, offering rich layout, track-changes, and cross-platform compatibility.
Why Markdown ➜ Word?
- Speed of writing: Markdown keeps your hands on the keyboard—no ribbons or dialogs.
- Clean version control: Plain text diffing works perfectly with Git.
- Corporate hand-off: Clients and colleagues often expect an editable .docx.
- Offline collaboration: Word's commenting & track-changes remain the industry norm.
Interface Overview
The workspace is split into a left Markdown editor and a right settings panel. The right panel contains two tabs—Word Settings and Images. All tweaks are applied instantly; one click on Generate Word delivers a fresh .docx.

Word Settings Explained
Key options and how they map to Pandoc metadata:
Category | Description |
---|---|
Document Info | title , author , subject , etc.—stored in Word file properties. |
Fonts & Styles | Language-aware defaults for mainfont , sansfont , monofont —override as needed. |
Headers & Footers | Pulled from reference.docx ; page numbers optional. |
Table of Contents | Pandoc inserts a TOC field. Remember to update it with F9 inside Word. |
Section Numbering | Enable number-sections to auto-number H1/H2 headings. |
Image Management Details
Before conversion the tool scans every ![]()
reference:
- • Public URL: downloaded and embedded automatically.
- • Local path / broken link: highlighted with a red badge; upload a replacement.
- • You can edit alt / title text—these become image captions in Word.
Images are Base64-embedded so the resulting .docx is fully self-contained.
FAQ & Troubleshooting
Layout looks wrong / font missing
Your system may not have the font specified in reference.docx
.
Fix: Switch to a built-in font in Word Settings or install the missing font locally.
Images missing
Local images were referenced but no replacement was uploaded.
Fix: Use the Images tab to upload a substitute or switch to a public URL.
"Generate Word" button disabled
Either Turnstile verification is pending or unresolved images remain.
Fix: Complete the captcha and make sure the Images tab shows no red badge.
Pro Tips & Best Practices
- • Add YAML front-matter at the top of your Markdown; the tool merges it into Word metadata.
- • Insert
<!-- pagebreak -->
to force a page break—Pandoc converts it automatically. - • Control TOC depth via
toc-depth
in Word Settings, then update the TOC in Word. - • After conversion, save the file again inside Word to purge temporary Pandoc styles.
