Frequently Asked Questions
What is GitHub-flavored Markdown (GFM) table syntax?
GFM tables use pipes (`|`) to separate columns and hyphens (`---`) below the header row to define column boundaries and text alignment.
What happens if a CSV cell contains a pipe (`|`) character?
The converter automatically escapes pipe characters as `\|` so the Markdown parser does not misinterpret them as column delimiters.
Can I align numeric columns to the right?
Yes! You can configure column alignment to right-align numbers for professional financial and metric presentation.
