Complete Markdown Guide
This page is your complete Markdown reference. Consult it whenever you need to remember how to format something.
Headings
Use # to create headings. More # symbols = smaller heading level.
# Main Title (H1)
## Subtitle (H2)
### Section (H3)
#### Subsection (H4)
##### Smaller (H5)
###### Smallest (H6)
H1 and H2 are most common. H3 and H4 are for subdivisions.
Tip
Always leave a space between # and the text. #Title won't work, use # Title.
Text Formatting
Format words or phrases with symbols around the text.
| You write | Result | Use |
|---|---|---|
**text** | text | Important emphasis |
*text* | text | Subtle emphasis |
***text*** | text | Maximum emphasis |
~~text~~ | Deleted/wrong text | |
`text` | text | Code or command |
==text== | text | Highlight |
Line Breaks and Paragraphs
Markdown treats line breaks specially. Understanding this avoids frustration.
| What you want | How to do it |
|---|---|
| New line (same paragraph) | Two spaces at end + Enter |
| New line (alternative) | <br> at end |
| New paragraph | Blank line between texts |
| Page break (PDF) | <!-- pagebreak --> or [PB] button |
Lists
Create lists with bullets or numbers.
Bullet list
- Item one
- Item two
- Subitem (2 spaces before)
- Item three
Use -, *, or + for bullets.
Numbered list
1. First item
2. Second item
3. Third item
Numbering is automatic.
Task list
- [ ] Pending task
- [x] Completed task
Use [ ] for pending, [x] for done.
