# CSV to Markdown Table

> Turn CSV, TSV or pasted spreadsheet data into a Markdown, HTML or reStructuredText table.

Converting a table to Markdown means padding each column to a consistent width and adding the alignment row that Markdown requires. This tool accepts CSV, TSV or data pasted straight from a spreadsheet, right-aligns numeric columns automatically, and also emits HTML and reStructuredText.

## FAQ

### Can I paste straight from Excel or Google Sheets?

Yes. Spreadsheets copy as tab-separated values, which is detected automatically — no need to export a file or change the delimiter first.

### Why are numbers right-aligned automatically?

Because it lines the digits up by place value, which is how numeric columns are meant to read. A column detected as entirely numeric gets the right-align marker; text columns stay left.
