Textile to Markdown
Convert textile to markdown with pandoc. Runs entirely on your device.
Runs on your device. The file is never uploaded.
Textile to Markdown reads the Textile of Redmine wikis, issue trackers and legacy blog exports, writing Markdown under your name with a .md extension. The extension you drop is never examined; the tool you picked fixes the input format. Textile can hang colours and CSS classes off inline text, and that styling has nowhere to go.
Questions
What kind of Textile does it read?
The Textile that pandoc's reader understands, which covers the syntax you find in Redmine wikis and issues, older CMS content and legacy blog exports: headings, emphasis, lists, links, images, block quotes and tables. Old or dialect-specific extensions might not be recognised, so read the output.
What happens to Textile styling like coloured spans?
It goes away. Textile can attach styles and CSS classes to inline text, and Markdown has nowhere to put them, so pandoc keeps the words and drops the styling. If the colour carried meaning, note where it was before converting.
Do tables come across?
Yes. Textile tables become Markdown tables in pandoc's dialect, which supports headers and alignment. Table cell attributes and spans are simplified, because Markdown's table syntax cannot express them. Header rows and alignment survive, since pandoc Markdown has syntax for both, so most Redmine tables come out usable without hand editing.
Where do I put the Textile to convert?
In any text file you drop on the page. The pandoc converters here do not look at the extension, so .textile, .txt and anything else all work; the tool you chose fixes the input format. The result is your file name with the .md extension.
How do I convert Markdown to Textile?
Use Markdown to Textile. Neither direction round trips perfectly, since each format has syntax the other cannot express. Both run as pandoc compiled to WebAssembly in a Web Worker in this tab, with no upload and no account. The file you get here is your name with the .md extension, and the Markdown is shown on the page with a copy button as well.
