Hello amazing COOL Community ![]()
Time for another Feature Friday recap, where we highlight a cool feature from our recent Collabora Online videos.
This time it’s all about Markdown Support. Writer now lets you import markdown directly and export documents back to markdown, so your structured text becomes a polished document in seconds.
Watch the full video here:

Instead of explaining everything here, we recommend watching the video, but here are a few quick highlights to get you curious ![]()
Highlights
- Paste and convert - Copy markdown and paste it directly into Writer. Titles, headings, bullets, and formatted text all convert automatically.
- Smart formatting - Markdown structure becomes document formatting. Your hashtags become proper headings, dashes become bullet lists, and emphasized text carries over cleanly.
- Works both ways - Export any Writer document (DOCX or ODT) back to Markdown format just as easily as importing.
- Perfect for multiple workflows - Ideal for technical documentation, internal notes, team reports, and AI-generated content that needs refinement.
- Saves time and effort - No more manually rebuilding headings, bullets, and formatting from scratch. Structured text becomes a finished document in seconds.
The video shows how Markdown support can make a big difference for teams working with documentation, developers integrating code notes, and anyone refining AI-generated content into polished reports.
