Highlighted labels show unusual or transformed characters at their original positions.

Convert Markdown without deleting the content

The converter strips heading markers, emphasis symbols, link destinations, image syntax, blockquotes and code fences. Link labels and code text remain readable.

Choose how aggressive the cleanup should be

You can remove only headings or apply the complete Markdown preset. Always review tables and unusually complex nested lists because plain text cannot preserve every layout relationship.
