What happens to your file.
The document is read in order and its structure is mapped to semantic HTML: headings become h1 to h6, Word lists become nested ul and ol lists, tables stay between the paragraphs around them with their header rows and merged cells, and footnotes become numbered notes with links back. Links with javascript:, data: or file: addresses are removed, hidden text is left out, and camera and location data is stripped from photos before they are embedded. The visual editor converts in your browser; Process file uses the same converter on our server, where charts and drawings stored as EMF or WMF are also turned into PNG so every browser can show them.
Where it stops: Fonts, colours, page layout, headers and footers are not reproduced, because a web page should take its styling from CSS. Equations, charts and SmartArt are left out, and tracked changes appear as if accepted; the conversion report lists each of these so nothing disappears silently.
What the converter keeps
| In Word | In the HTML |
|---|---|
| Title, Heading 1 to 6 and Quote styles | h1 to h6 and blockquote |
| Bulleted and numbered lists, including nested levels | ul and ol with li |
| Tables, repeating header rows and merged cells | table with thead, colspan and rowspan |
| Bold, italic, underline, strikethrough, superscript, subscript and highlight | strong, em, u, s, sup, sub and mark |
| Hyperlinks, footnotes and endnotes | Links and numbered notes with back-links |
| Pictures and their alt text | img with alt, width and height |
| Comments | An optional list after the document |
Which output should you choose?
- Complete page: a standalone .html file with a title, character set and optional stylesheet that opens in any browser.
- Fragment: only the document content, ready to paste into the HTML view of a CMS or site builder.
- Inline styles: table borders and image sizing written onto each element, for email tools and editors that remove <style> blocks.
- Separate image files: a ZIP with the HTML and an images folder, so large pictures do not bloat the HTML.

Common questions.
What is DOCX to HTML conversion?
It turns the structure of a Word document (headings, paragraphs, lists, tables, links and images) into HTML elements, so the content can be published on a website or pasted into a CMS.
Does the converter preserve images?
Yes. Images can be embedded in the HTML, saved as separate files with matching paths in a ZIP, or left out. You can also convert them to WebP or JPEG and limit their width.
Can I get clean HTML without Word markup?
Yes. The output uses semantic tags only, with no mso- styles, Office namespaces or font tags. Choose no CSS for the cleanest fragment, or add a small readable stylesheet.
What happens to tables?
Tables become real HTML tables. Header rows marked to repeat in Word become thead cells, merged cells keep their colspan and rowspan, and tables can be wrapped so they scroll on small screens.
Are tables, text boxes and footnotes kept in the right place?
Yes. The document is read in order, so a table stays between the paragraphs around it, text inside text boxes and content controls is kept, inserted tracked changes appear as accepted, and footnotes become numbered notes at the end with links back.
Is my document uploaded?
Not with the visual editor, which converts it in your browser. Process file sends it to our server, where it is written to a temporary folder for that request and deleted as soon as the job finishes.
Why is some content missing from the HTML?
Headers, footers, equations, charts and SmartArt have no direct HTML equivalent in the converter. The conversion report lists anything left out or changed, including tracked changes and comments.
