FAQ
How do I paste this into Outlook?
In a new message, paste directly into the body. Outlook (new Outlook, classic desktop, and outlook.com) keeps headings, bold, lists, links and tables. If Outlook’s paste options popup appears, choose "Keep Source Formatting".
What about plain-text mode?
If your message format is set to Plain Text (Format Text → Plain Text), Outlook strips all formatting on paste by design — switch the message to HTML format first, or use the clean plain-text fallback that is also on your clipboard.
Does this work in Word too?
Yes — the same rich clipboard pastes into Word, Google Docs and Apple Mail with formatting intact.
Is my text uploaded anywhere?
No. The conversion runs entirely in your browser — your text is never sent anywhere, stored, or logged. We count anonymous, cookie-free page views and conversion events (event names only — never content, never identifiers) to see which tools are useful.
Does it only work with ChatGPT output?
No — it converts any Markdown. Output from Copilot, Mistral, DeepSeek, Perplexity or any other AI works, and so does Markdown from READMEs, Notion exports, or your own notes. Research citations (footnotes like [^1] with a source list) are converted too.
What happens to tables?
They stay real tables. The rich text on your clipboard includes a proper formatted table that pastes straight into the editor.
