One Keystroke to Formatted Output
Paper converts your Markdown to HTML and copies it to the clipboard. No export dialogs, no file management, no extra steps. Just copy and paste.
The HTML is clean and semantic — proper heading tags, paragraph elements, and list structures. It pastes correctly into virtually any rich text field.
Works With
- •Email clients — Apple Mail, Gmail, Outlook
- •CMS platforms — WordPress, Ghost, Webflow
- •Note apps — Notion, Bear, Craft
- •Documents — Google Docs, Pages, Word
- •Newsletters — Substack, Mailchimp, ConvertKit
- •Any rich text field — Comments, forms, wikis
How It Works
- Write your content in Markdown
- Select Edit → Copy as HTML (or use the keyboard shortcut)
- Paste into your destination — it arrives formatted
Paper also includes a plain-text fallback on the clipboard, so if you paste into a plain-text field, you get the original Markdown.
Why This Matters
Markdown is a great writing format, but most of the web expects HTML or rich text. Copy as HTML bridges that gap without requiring you to leave your editor or manage export files.
For developers writing documentation, bloggers drafting posts, or anyone who publishes to the web, this feature saves significant time.
Clean, Semantic HTML
The generated HTML uses standard tags:
<h1>through<h6>for headings<p>for paragraphs<strong>and<em>for bold and italic<code>for inline code<ul>,<ol>,<li>for lists<a>for links
No inline styles, no unnecessary wrappers — just clean markup that inherits your destination's styling.
