Frequently Asked Questions

How do I import a table from Microsoft Excel or Google Sheets?
Copy your cell selection directly from Excel or Google Sheets (Cmd+C / Ctrl+C), click 'Import / Paste' in this tool, and paste into the box. The tool automatically detects tab-separated values (TSV) and populates the grid.
What is the difference between Pretty-Padded and Compact Markdown tables?
Pretty-Padded Markdown calculates column widths and aligns vertical pipe characters (|) with spaces, making raw Markdown and README files easy to read in monospaced text editors. Compact mode minimizes file size by omitting padding spaces.
How do column alignments work in GitHub Flavored Markdown (GFM)?
GFM defines alignment in the second delimiter row: :--- aligns text to the left, :---: centers text, and ---: aligns text to the right. The generator automatically produces the correct delimiter row.
Is my table data sent to any server?
No. All parsing, editing, and Markdown code generation is performed 100% locally in your browser memory. Your data never leaves your computer.
