What is MD?

MD

Markdown stores formatted text as plain character sequences with markup syntax. Images are pixel-based data at fixed resolutions. Converting Markdown to images means rendering the formatted text with a specific styling and capturing it as pixels—transforming text with markup into visual raster data. This creates snapshots but removes text editability, searchability, and format flexibility.

  • MD contains structured text and layout data that renders to fixed visual output
  • Text and vector elements rasterize to pixels during image conversion
  • Page layout determines final image dimensions and aspect ratio

What is ICO?

ICO

ICO stores multiple raster images at various sizes for Windows icons. Documents store text with formatting. While documents might display icons, ICO pixels contain no text—they're small graphics designed for UI representation. Converting ICO to document format has no meaningful purpose without embedding the icon as a decorative image.

  • ICO stores pixel-based images, ideal for photographs and graphics requiring document embedding
  • Embeds easily in document formats without quality loss
  • Rectangular image bounds integrate cleanly into document layouts
  • Fixed resolution determines final document print quality
