Built for Email Clients

Email clients are stricter than browsers. Gmail strips <style>blocks, Outlook renders with Word's layout engine, and dark mode can invert colors. The output here is written for that environment:

  • Every style is inline on its element, so nothing depends on a stylesheet.
  • Tables use plain borders and cell padding that Outlook respects.
  • Text uses the system font stack each reader already has, falling back to Helvetica and Arial.
  • Code uses a monospace stack with a light background that stays readable.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I paste markdown into Gmail with formatting?

Paste your markdown here, click Copy for email, then paste into the Gmail compose window. Headings, bold, lists, tables, and links come through formatted. Gmail does not render markdown on its own, so pasting the raw text shows asterisks and pound signs.

Does it work in Outlook?

Yes, in Outlook for Windows, Mac, and the web. The output uses inline styles and simple tables, which is what Outlook's Word based rendering engine handles reliably.

How is this different from Markdown Here?

Markdown Here is a browser extension that renders markdown inside the compose window. This page needs no install and no extension permissions, works in any browser including locked down work machines, and also gives you the HTML source for templates.

Why are the headings smaller than in a document?

Email headings are sized for a message, not a report. A 32 pixel title looks out of place in an inbox, so this tool uses modest sizes and a standard email font stack.

Can I use the HTML in an email template?

Yes. Click Copy HTML to get self contained HTML with inline styles and no external CSS, which is what email clients require. Paste it into Mailchimp, HubSpot, or any template that accepts custom HTML.

Can I turn a ChatGPT draft into an email?

Yes. ChatGPT and Claude write in markdown. Copy the reply, paste it here, and copy it out as email formatted text. If the draft is full of em dashes, run it through the em dash remover first.

Is my email content private?

Yes. Everything is converted in your browser and nothing is sent anywhere.
