01is my document uploaded anywhere?

no. parsing, rendering and exporting all happen in this tab. the text is kept in local storage so it survives a refresh — clear it any time with the clear button.

02how does the pdf conversion work?

it uses your browser's own print engine: pick page size and margins, press pdf, and choose 'save as pdf' in the dialog. the suggested filename comes from your first heading.

03what's in the html export?

one self-contained file — styles, highlighting, everything inlined. open it anywhere, email it, host it; it has no external dependencies.

04does the word export really work in word?

yes — it's a word-compatible document that opens natively in microsoft word and imports cleanly into google docs and pages, keeping headings, tables, lists and images.

05which markdown flavour is supported?

github-flavored markdown: tables, task lists, strikethrough, autolinks, fenced code with syntax highlighting, blockquotes, and yaml front matter (rendered as a table or skipped — your choice).

06can it convert documents back to markdown?

yes — flip to docs → md and drop html, docx, pptx, odp, txt, csv, json or pdf files. the markdown loads straight into the editor, so you can go docx → markdown → pdf without leaving the page. pdf conversion is experimental: text-based, single-column pdfs work best, and scanned pdfs are rejected (no ocr).

07what is the json export for?

the raw token tree the parser produces — handy if you're building your own markdown tooling or want to see exactly how your document was parsed.
