Overview

Markdown export converts your document into a .md file. All block types are translated to their Markdown equivalents, making it easy to use your content in GitHub repositories, wikis, documentation platforms, and note-taking apps.

​

Navigate to the document you want to export in the editor.
2

Image Handling

Screenshots are exported as image references pointing to their hosted URLs. If you need fully offline Markdown, download the images separately and update the paths in the .md file.
Image URLs in the exported Markdown point to clarife’s CDN. If you delete the document or your account, those URLs will stop working. Download images separately for archival use.

​
Use Cases

  • GitHub READMEs — paste the Markdown directly into your repository.
  • Documentation platforms — import into Notion, Confluence, GitBook, or Mintlify.
  • Note-taking apps — open in Obsidian, Typora, or Bear.
Yes. Markdown export is available on all plans.
Screenshots with annotations are exported as their composited (flattened) images. The annotation layers are baked into the image — they are not separate in the Markdown.
Not currently. Markdown export is one-way. You can copy-paste content back into the editor manually.
Enhancer frames (device mockups, backgrounds) are baked into the exported screenshot image, just like annotations.
