Format Details
Markdown
Markdown is a lightweight plain-text markup language created by John Gruber in 2004 to make writing formatted content for the web as easy as possible. It uses minimal punctuation-based syntax to define headings, emphasis, links, images, lists, and code blocks that convert cleanly to HTML. Markdown is the dominant format for README files, software documentation, technical blogs, and static site generators across the entire software industry.
documentOrg
Org-mode is a plain-text format used within GNU Emacs for organizing notes, managing tasks and projects, writing documents, and creating structured content. It supports rich headings, nested lists, tables, source code blocks, links, and a complete task-management system with priorities, deadlines, and agenda views. Org files can be exported directly to HTML, PDF, LaTeX, ODT, and other formats from within Emacs.
documentConverting MD to ORG: what actually changes
Markdown to Org is one of the conversions this site performs, but the two formats are not interchangeable containers. Here is what the file keeps, what it loses, and how to get a result you can use.
What .MD and .ORG each hold
.MD is a document format built for reading, printing or circulating a document, storing text, layout, fonts and images. .ORG is a document format built for reading, printing or circulating a document, storing text, layout, fonts and images. Converting between them is a decision about which of those two jobs the result needs to do.
What changes in the conversion
Both files belong to the document category, so this is a like-for-like repackage: the same kind of content, stored in a different container. What changes is how .ORG encodes text, layout, fonts and images — not what the file is about.
When this conversion is the right one
Reach for .ORG when the software, device or platform you are sending to expects it — the content is the same document, only the packaging differs. The reverse direction works the same way, so you can always convert back from .ORG to .MD using the same tool.
Tips for a clean MD to ORG conversion
Start from the original file
Convert the .MD you started with, not an earlier .ORG output. Every extra round trip costs quality and can accumulate formatting drift.
Check the real type, not the extension
Text/markdown becomes text/x-org. If a file was renamed rather than converted, it will fail to open — rename it back to its true extension before uploading and the conversion will recognise it.
Keep the output next to the original
Save the .ORG file alongside the source rather than replacing it. Having both means you can try a different target later without hunting down the original again.
Limits worth knowing
Uploads are capped per file (30 MB, or 100 MB for video) and processed temporarily — nothing is kept as a permanent copy. For huge document files, split or compress the source first.
