Working with DOCX

Marked has extensive support for working with Microsoft Word files.

Opening DOCX files

Marked can read a DOCX file and convert it to clean Markdown. Valid style elements like headlines and lists will be converted to their Markdown equivalent.

Change tracking and comments will be converted to CriticMarkup. Highlights will be converted to <mark> tags, with colors where appropriate.

Exporting DOCX files

Use the Export palette to generate a DOCX file from your Markdown. In the save dialog you can specify a built-in styles — this style can easily be changed in Word just by opening the theme selector and selecting a new theme.

Change Tracking

CriticMarkup syntax in a Markdown document will be converted to Word Change Tracking when exported to DOCX. Comments following insertions, deletions, and substitutions will appear in the right hand column in Word when change tracking is enabled.

When importing a DOCX file in Marked, change tracking will be converted to CriticMarkup and <mark> tags as appropriate.

Math

MathJax and Katex equations displayed in the document will be converted to MathML for display in Word. This conversion isn’t perfect, but in most cases will render a valid math block in the word document. This only applies to export — math blocks in Word documents will not be converted when importing.
