Is cell formatting (color, bold) preserved?

No. Only the text content is converted — cell formatting is not carried over.

How do I stop the first row from becoming a header?

Uncheck "Treat first row as header (th)" and every row will be converted as regular data (td).

Is the pasted data sent to a server?

No. It's converted entirely in your browser.

Does Google Sheets work too?

Yes — Sheets, Numbers and Excel all paste as tab-separated text, so they convert the same way.

What if a cell contains a newline?

A newline is read as a row break, which can shift the table. Clean multi-line cells before copying.

Alice	Engineer

Output

<table>
  <tr>
    <th>Name</th>
    <th>Role</th>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td>Alice</td>
    <td>Engineer</td>
  </tr>
</table>

Pasting a two-row tab-separated table with "Treat first row as header (th)" enabled turns the first row into th cells and the rest into td cells. Any special characters in a cell (<, >, &) are automatically escaped to HTML entities.

How pasted data converts

Copied cells arrive as tab-separated columns and newline-separated rows — the same structure maps directly onto HTML table tags.

Element	Role
`<table>`	Container wrapping the whole table
`<tr>`	One pasted line = one table row
`<td>`	Regular data cell
`<th>`	First row becomes header cells when the "header row" option is on
