Common problems and fixes

The Markdown output has too many blank lines and extra whitespace.

Complex HTML with lots of divs and wrappers tends to produce extra blank lines. Most Markdown renderers collapse extra whitespace, but you can clean it up manually or with a text editor.

Some HTML elements aren't converting — they appear as raw HTML in the output.

Elements without a Markdown equivalent — like tables with complex spans, or custom components — may be kept as-is or dropped. Standard elements like headings, paragraphs, and lists convert cleanly.

Script and style tags are appearing in the Markdown output.

The converter strips script and style blocks, but very large or nested HTML documents with embedded scripts may produce unexpected output. Clean up the HTML before converting.
