Frequently Asked Questions
Does this handle complex inline styles?
No, Markdown is a structural language. Inline CSS styles (colors, font-sizes) are stripped during conversion, but structural elements (bold, italic, links, lists) are converted perfectly.
Is my HTML data sent to a server?
No. The entire conversion process happens locally in your browser using the Turndown engine. No data is transmitted.
