How long are uploaded files retained?

Files are temporary. Completed conversions are kept for up to 60 minutes by default, downloaded files are normally removed after about 10 minutes, and failed conversions after about 30 minutes. These times may be shortened by the server configuration. Download important results promptly because an expired conversion cannot be restored.

Why did a conversion fail or expire?

Common causes include an oversized file, unsupported or unsafe ZIP contents, invalid formulas or diagrams, a temporary service problem, or waiting too long before downloading the result. The page shows a readable error message. Correct invalid Markdown or ZIP contents before retrying; connection and server errors may require an administrator.

How long does a conversion normally take?

Short text-only documents usually finish quickly. Images, complex math, multiple Mermaid diagrams, citations, and long documents take longer. Keep the page open and watch the overall progress until the file is ready or an error message appears.

Can I generate a table of contents, list of figures, or list of tables?

The document navigation options can be enabled in the workspace. Identified and captioned figures and tables can participate in figure and table lists when the selected output and viewer support those fields. Update fields after opening a DOCX if the editor requests it.

What upload and ZIP safety limits are enforced?

Markdown and ZIP file sizes are checked before upload and again on the conversion server. ZIP packages are also checked for unsafe paths, too many files, unusual compression, excessive extracted size, unsupported contents, and insufficient storage space.

What should I do if progress appears stuck?

Do not submit the same document repeatedly. Keep the page open for a little longer. If an error or expiration message appears, follow that message, correct the Markdown or uploaded files, and start again. If the page reports a network or service connection problem, contact the site administrator.

Why can automatic numbering duplicate numbers already in my headings?

Word automatic numbering and text typed into a heading are separate. A heading written as "## 2. Background" can therefore display two numbers when numbering is enabled. Remove the typed number or disable automatic heading numbering; DocuCraftBox does not guess whether every numeric prefix is intentional content.

Paste Markdown, upload a .md or .markdown file, or upload a ZIP package. When a ZIP contains several Markdown files, choose the one to convert.

02

Set the document

Pick one of the four templates, adjust the supported settings, and watch the HTML reference preview update as you work.

03

Review and export

Check headings, tables, code, page flow, and metadata. Start the conversion and follow the progress panel until the file is ready.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Before downloading, check these details.

Does the live preview exactly match the final file?

The preview is rendered HTML for visual checking. The final DOCX or PDF is rendered by the conversion service, so pagination, available fonts, and some advanced elements can differ slightly.

What files can I upload?

You can paste Markdown or upload .md, .markdown, and .zip files. A ZIP can contain multiple Markdown files; select the entry you want before converting.

Why are some settings not visible on this page?

The panel is limited to parameters that the DOCX endpoint accepts and applies. This keeps every visible control connected to the exported file.

What should I check when conversion fails?

Confirm that the source contains Markdown content, a ZIP entry has been selected, the API service is available, and the selected file type is supported. The progress area shows the returned error when the service provides one.

Can I change the document after choosing a template?

Yes. The source, template, and settings remain editable until you start the conversion. Use Reset to restore the example document and default settings.
