Install Web2MD from the Chrome Web Store. It’s free — no account required to get started.
After installation, you’ll see the Web2MD icon ( .MD ) in your browser toolbar. Pin it for easy access.

Step 2: Convert your first page

Navigate to any webpage, then choose one of these methods:
  1. Click the Web2MD icon in the toolbar
