## How to Convert HTML to Markdown

1. Upload a saved .html or .htm file.
2. DocToMD extracts readable structure such as headings, paragraphs, lists, links, code-like text, and simple tables.
3. Review navigation fragments, scripts, layout wrappers, and any table output before publishing.
4. Copy the Markdown or download the converted content as an .md file.

## Common Uses

- Use HTML to Markdown when the source is a local .html or .htm file, especially for exported articles, static pages, help documents, and archived web content.
- Use URL to Markdown for a live public webpage, because the URL workflow can fetch the page directly before extracting readable content.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### Does HTML to Markdown keep CSS styles?

No. Markdown preserves content structure rather than CSS presentation.

### Can HTML tables become Markdown tables?

Simple HTML tables can often be converted into Markdown tables. Complex nested tables may need manual cleanup.

### Are uploaded files stored?

Files are processed for conversion and temporary files are removed after processing. Avoid uploading password-protected or highly sensitive files unless you are comfortable processing them through the service.
