Policies are written in Word. The returns policy, the escalation matrix, the SLA addendum legal keeps in a shared drive with tracked changes on. Word is where they are drafted, reviewed and approved, and where they stay — until someone pastes one paragraph into a macro, someone else paraphrases it in a help article, and three versions of the same rule are in circulation by the end of the quarter.
This tool converts a Word file — .docx, .doc or .odt, up to 10 MB — to Markdown. Heading styles become # headings, bulleted and numbered lists become lists, tables become Markdown tables, and links are kept. No model is involved: the conversion runs on Cloudflare's document-to-Markdown service, in memory, and the file is discarded once the result is returned. This is the format an agent reads — the same conversion powers Wiredesk's knowledge ingestion.
What each input means
- 01
Choose the file
A .docx, .doc or .odt file, up to 10 MB. If you have the choice, use .docx: older .doc files often carry manual formatting rather than heading styles, and the headings come out as bold text. Accept any tracked changes first, or you'll convert the draft.
- 02
Convert to Markdown
Press the button. The file goes over HTTPS, is converted once, and is dropped. It's deterministic — no model, no variation between runs — so you can convert the same document after every revision and diff the Markdown to see what changed.
- 03
Copy or download
Copy to the clipboard or download the .md file. Check the outline: every Heading 1 should be a # line and every Heading 2 a ## line. If a section is missing its heading, it was formatted by hand in Word and needs a real style before the next conversion.
Questions about this tool
Both work, and so does OpenDocument .odt. The difference is in the document, not the format: files from older versions of Word were often styled by hand — bigger font, bold — instead of with Heading styles, so their headings convert as plain bold text. Saving as .docx doesn't fix that; applying heading styles does.
