How it works

How does the publishing workflow work?

Move through one four-step loop: paste a draft, inspect the live preview, copy rich text, and publish it to your destination page.

Step 1

Type or paste

Bring plain text, Markdown, or a copied rich-text draft into the left pane.

Step 2

Preview live

Check headings, tables, lists, links, and inline emphasis in the right pane.

Step 3

Copy rich text

Put the rendered HTML on your clipboard with the editor’s copy action.

Step 4

Publish and review

Paste into the destination page and complete your normal team review.
