Import supported files from a local ZIP archive
Open a ZIP archive in your browser and convert supported entries such as Markdown, Office documents, HTML, data files, and images without uploading the archive.
Markdown Lens inspects the archive locally, enforces size and nesting limits, and converts readable entries one by one. Encrypted or unsafe archives are rejected.
Local browser processing. No document upload.

What the converter preserves

- Local conversion warnings per entry
- A bounded, reviewable import instead of a silent dump
Limitations to review
Markdown represents document structure, not every visual layout detail.
- Only one nesting level is read.
- Archives are limited to 100 entries and 128 MB expanded.
- Encrypted ZIPs and unsupported file types are skipped or rejected.
- Each converted entry still has the same format limitations as opening that file directly.
Questions about ZIP
Is the ZIP uploaded?
No. The archive is opened and expanded in the browser within local safety limits.
Does it extract every file type?
No. Only formats Markdown Lens already converts are imported, such as Markdown, PDF, DOCX, PPTX, XLSX, HTML, CSV, JSON, XML, EPUB, and supported images.
