Does MDDoc handle code blocks properly?

Yes. Fenced code blocks convert to styled monospace text with a shaded background in Word. Inline code renders in monospace too. It looks like properly formatted code, not plain text in the wrong font.

Can I automate conversion in my CI/CD pipeline?

Yes. The REST API accepts markdown and returns a .docx file. Use it in GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or any pipeline that can make HTTP requests. Generate Word docs from your markdown source on every release.

Does it support mermaid diagrams or math notation?

Standard markdown elements are fully supported — headings, lists, tables, code blocks, images, links, blockquotes. For diagrams, we recommend rendering them as images first and referencing them in your markdown.

Can I use this with my existing documentation in git?

Absolutely. Your markdown stays in git as the source of truth. When you need a Word version, convert it through MDDoc. The markdown source is never modified.

What about large documents?

The free converter supports up to 10,000 characters. Pro plans remove all limits — convert full architecture documents, lengthy ADRs, or comprehensive runbooks without restrictions.

Use Cases/Developers

Write markdown. Ship Word docs.

Convert READMEs, ADRs, and runbooks to polished Word documents without leaving your workflow. No formatting busywork. No copy-paste chaos.

The Problem

What slows you down

The formatting tax

Every time someone asks for a Word version of your documentation, you lose 20 minutes copying, pasting, and fixing formatting that Word mangles. Headings become bold paragraphs. Code blocks become Calibri. Tables fall apart.

Inconsistent output across the team

Five developers formatting the same ADR template produce five different-looking Word documents. There's no standard, no consistency, and no one wants to own the Word template.

Context switching kills flow

You're writing documentation in your editor. Now you need to open Word, remember how styles work, and become a desktop publishing expert for 30 minutes. By the time you're done formatting, you've lost your train of thought.

Version control nightmare

Markdown diffs cleanly in git. Word documents don't. When you maintain both formats, you inevitably end up with the Word version out of sync with the markdown source.

The Solution

How MDDoc helps

One-click conversion from markdown

Paste your markdown, see a preview, download a .docx. Headings, tables, code blocks, and lists format automatically with proper Word styles. No manual formatting.

Team templates for consistent output

Upload your team's Word template once. Every conversion uses the same fonts, colors, and layout. Every developer produces identical-looking documents.

API for CI/CD pipelines

Automate document generation with the REST API. Generate Word docs from markdown on every release, pull request, or scheduled build. Keep your docs in git, serve them in Word.

AI classification picks the right template

Writing an ADR? A runbook? Meeting notes? MDDoc's AI detects the document type and applies the right template automatically. No manual selection.
