Frequently asked questions

Which HTML elements are supported?

The converter supports headings (h1-h6), paragraphs, links (a), images (img), lists (ul, ol, li), blocks (pre, code, blockquote), horizontal lines (hr), line breaks (br), and bold/italic formatting.

How does it handle nested HTML lists?

It recursively parses lists and applies appropriate indentation (dashes for unordered lists and incrementing numbers for ordered lists).

What happens to unsupported HTML tags?

Any unsupported tags (like divs, spans, sections, tables) are stripped, and their internal text or children are rendered directly as plaintext.
