Docx Markdown Editor

Edit DOCX content as Markdown directly in VS Code, then round-trip changes back to the original document with Pandoc.

Features

• Open .docx files as Markdown
• Sync edits back to .docx on save
• Convert Markdown, DOCX, and HTML to other supported formats
• Create a new blank .docx file from the Explorer context menu

Requirements

• Pandoc installed and available on PATH

Usage

1. Right-click a .docx file in Explorer.
2. Choose Open as Markdown.
3. Edit the generated .md file.
4. Save the file to write changes back to .docx.
5. Right-click a folder and choose New .docx.. to create a blank document.

Conversion

• .docx -> .md, .pdf, .html
• .md -> .docx, .pdf, .html, .epub
• .html -> .md, .docx, .pdf

Notes

• Temporary Markdown files are created alongside the source as .docx.md.
• Newly created documents start as new-document.docx and can be renamed immediately.
