Hi,

On the page

=C2=A0 https://orgmode.org/manual/Markdown-expor= t.html

the second line reads:

=C2=A0 Since md is built on top of the HTML back-end, any Org constructs no= t
=C2=A0 supported by Markdown, such as tables, the underlying html back-end<= br> =C2=A0 (see HTML export) converts them.

My guess is that this should be

=C2=A0 Since md is built on top of the HTML back-end, any Org constructs no= t
=C2=A0 supported by Markdown, such as tables, are converted by the underlyi= ng
=C2=A0 html back-end (see HTML export).

However, I still don't understand what it means, so maybe my guess is incorrect.

In any case, what will an Org table be converted to in the MD output?

Cheers,

Loris
