Share a Markdown Table as an Image
Paste a GitHub-flavoured Markdown table and export it as a PNG with real borders and a shaded header row, ready for a slide or a post.
Direct answer
Paste the pipe table into the tool and press Download PNG. GitHub Flavored Markdown tables are parsed, so the header row gets a shaded background and every cell gets a border. Column alignment markers in the separator row are respected. Wide tables fit by wrapping cell text, because the image cannot scroll sideways.

- A comparison table has to go into a deck, a chat, or a social post that does not render Markdown.
- You want the table to look consistent everywhere instead of depending on the reader's renderer.
- A screenshot of a rendered table would include browser chrome you do not want.
Steps
- Paste the pipe table into the Markdown input, including the header and the --- separator row.
- Choose a wide preset. Auto height at 1200 wide suits most tables.
- Lower Font size if the cell text wraps too often.
- Pick the Light or GitHub theme so the borders read clearly.
- Press Download PNG, or press Copy image to clipboard to paste it straight into a message.
Example conversion
| Plan | Seats | Price | | --- | ---: | ---: | | Starter | 3 | $0 | | Team | 25 | $49 | | Business | 200 | $199 |
A PNG of a three-column table: a shaded header row, one-pixel borders around every cell, and the Seats and Price columns right-aligned as the separator row asks.
Common mistakes
- Columns share the width evenly, so a table with many columns wraps text. Cut columns or lower the font size instead of widening the card.
- A table taller than a fixed preset is cropped. Switch to Auto height.
- Numbers are not reformatted or recalculated. What you paste is what is drawn.
FAQ
- Does column alignment work?
- Yes. The :--- , :---: , and ---: markers in the separator row set left, centre, and right alignment, and the exported cells follow them.
- Why is my table text wrapping?
- The table uses a fixed layout at the card width, so columns divide the space evenly. Reduce the font size, remove a column, or pick a wider preset.
- Can I edit the image afterwards?
- The download is a flat PNG, so there are no editable layers. Change the Markdown or the controls and export again.
