What is a Markdown document?
+
Markdown is a plain-text markup format. The file itself is human-readable; the formatting is applied by a renderer. Markdown is popular for technical writing because it diffs cleanly in version control.
What is the best format to convert Markdown to?
+
For sharing without edits, convert Markdown to PDF — every device opens it the same way. For further editing, convert to DOCX. For data extraction from spreadsheets, convert to CSV.
Does converting Markdown preserve formatting?
+
When you convert Markdown to a similar document format (Word, ODT, PDF), formatting, fonts, images and tables are preserved with high fidelity. When you convert to a plain-text format (TXT, MD), styling is stripped down to the underlying words.
Can MOV.to OCR a scanned Markdown?
+
Yes. If your Markdown is a scanned image of text rather than real text, MOV.to runs OCR on conversion to extract the words. The result is a searchable, copy-pasteable document.
Are formulas preserved when converting Markdown?
+
Formulas only apply to spreadsheet documents. Markdown does not carry formulas, so this concern does not apply here.
Will my Markdown file be private?
+
Yes. Markdown uploads travel over HTTPS, sit on our server only long enough to convert, and are auto-deleted. We do not read or index document contents.
How big a Markdown can I convert at once?
+
Free users go up to 100 MB — enough for most Markdown files including image-heavy reports and long documents. Pro users get multiple GB per upload and batch conversion.
Can I edit a Markdown on MOV.to after converting?
+
Yes — MOV.to ships in-browser editors for Markdown-style documents: word editor, markdown editor, and read-only readers. Convert in, edit, export out without leaving the page.
Do I need Office or any paid software for Markdown?
+
No. Markdown conversion runs server-side. You do not need Microsoft Office, Adobe Acrobat or any local install — just a browser.
Is converting Markdown free on MOV.to?
+
Yes — Markdown conversion is free for everyday use. Premium plans unlock larger files, batch jobs, OCR for scanned documents, and document AI features (chat, summarize).
