What is Markdown/DOCX?

Markdown (.md) and Word (.docx) are lightweight structured authoring files — a good starting point for conversion rather than a final reading format.

About the format

Markdown (.md) and Word documents (.docx) are grouped here because they play the same role in conversion: lightweight structured authoring sources. Markdown is plain text plus markers (# headings, ** bold) — clean but limited. A .docx is a ZIP of Office Open XML with far richer layout (pagination, headers, footers, comments, tracked changes). Both are good conversion sources rather than final reading formats.
