A repeatable workflow for multiple Word files

Start with one DOCX file, download the Markdown, then repeat the same settings for the rest of your folder. This keeps output consistent while the current browser tool handles one file at a time.

Batch migration checklist

  • Use the same Markdown output mode across the whole document set.
  • Convert image-heavy files separately and review the ZIP download.
  • Run the Markdown cleaner after combining edited files.

Prepare files before conversion

Save old .doc files as .docx, simplify complex tables, and remove tracked changes before converting a document collection to Markdown.

Frequently asked questions

Can I upload multiple DOCX files at once?+

Not in this version. Use this page as a repeatable workflow for a folder of Word documents, converting one DOCX file at a time.

How should I name Markdown files in a batch?+

Keep filenames short, lowercase, and descriptive. Use the same names for image folders when a Word file contains extracted images.

Are Word files uploaded to a server?+

The converter is designed to process DOCX files in your browser. Analytics events never include file names, document text, or converted Markdown.

Can it convert old .doc files?+

The first version supports .docx files. For older .doc files, open them in Word, Google Docs, or LibreOffice and save a .docx copy first.

Will the Markdown look exactly like the Word file?+

No. The converter prioritizes clean semantic Markdown over exact visual layout, so spacing, fonts, and page-specific styling are simplified.
