How each kind of file is converted
Word: heading styles become Markdown headings, and lists, tables and images follow in the order of the original.
PowerPoint: the titles and text boxes of every slide are put in order and the images are exported separately. Excel and CSV: every sheet becomes a table. EPUB e-books and HTML pages: converted by chapter and body text.
