    format (e.g. changing all words/phrases in italics to words/phrases with asterisks before and after). I'd also like to know if this would work
    in reverse, i.e. taking a text file written in markdown and having Word convert it into HTML (replacing ### with level three headings, replacing words surrounded with double-asterisks into bold text, etc.).

    Hi there!
    You can save your MS Word document as Markdown document without any manual changes, using Writage plugin. It will allow you to open, edit and save MD files in MS Word or save DOCX files in MD format from MS Word.

    Best wishes,
    Elena
