How-to Guide

1. Import Markdown with a slash command

Entry: document editing area → type / → select Import Markdown

1. Open a smart document and place the cursor where you want to insert content.
2. Type / at the beginning of an empty paragraph.
3. Select Import Markdown from the quick menu, or type /markdown to locate it faster.
4. In the file picker, select a local .md file.
5. Confirm the import, and the Markdown content will be parsed and inserted at the current cursor position.

Success Criteria

• Interface result: imported headings, lists, or code blocks appear in the document.
• Next action available: you can continue editing, adding content, or sharing the imported result.
• No unwanted replacement: existing document content is not replaced as a whole; the imported content is inserted at the current cursor position.

Tips While Using

• Common mistake: if / is not entered at the beginning of an empty paragraph, the quick menu may not appear as expected.
• Environment note: slash-command import is not supported on mobile in this workflow, so Windows desktop is recommended.

2. Import Markdown from the top menu

Entry: top ribbon → Insert → Markdown Import

1. Create or open the target smart document.
2. Click Insert on the top ribbon.
3. Select Markdown Import from the drop-down menu.
4. In the file picker, find and select the local .md file.
5. Click Open or confirm, and the system will parse the file content into the current document.

Success Criteria

• Interface result: the imported content appears in the document and keeps common Markdown structures.
• Next action available: you can continue adjusting formatting, adding text, or collaborating with others.

Tips While Using

• Common mistake: if you select a file that is not .md, the import may not work as expected.
• Environment note: make sure the document is open normally and is in an editable state first.

3. Import Markdown by drag and drop

Entry: local folder → drag a .md file into the document editing area

1. Open the smart document editing interface.
2. Find the .md file you want to import in a local folder.
3. Drag the file into the document editing area.
4. Release the mouse, and the system will start parsing and importing the Markdown content automatically.
5. Check whether headings, lists, and code blocks display correctly after import.

Success Criteria

• Interface result: imported content appears in the document after the drag-and-drop action.
• Next action available: you can continue editing the imported result in the current document.

Tips While Using

• Common mistake: if you drop the file outside the editing area, the import may not start.
• Environment note: make sure the local file is accessible and the current window is the document editing interface.
