Rich Text to HTML

Paste rich text and get clean, copy-ready HTML markup.

Type or paste formatted text in the editor and see the corresponding HTML source. Copy or download the output.

When you copy text from Word, Google Docs, or another rich editor and paste it into a CMS or email builder, the formatting often gets stripped. This tool preserves your formatting by converting the styled text into clean HTML markup you can paste directly.

Bold becomes <strong>, italics become <em>, underline becomes <u>, and heading styles become proper <h1>–<h6> tags. Ordered and unordered lists convert to <ol> and <ul> elements. The output HTML is clean, readable, and compatible with any web-based editor.

This is especially useful for email marketing workflows — build your email content with familiar rich text controls, then copy the HTML into your email platform's code editor for precise control over rendering.

How to use Rich Text to HTML

  2. Step 2: The HTML source is generated live in the panel below as you type or format.
  3. Step 3: Click "Copy HTML" to copy the markup to your clipboard, or click "Download" to save it as an .html file.
