Safe Reading
Reader is designed to open Markdown files without letting document content control the app or change your files.
HTML and scripts
Section titled “HTML and scripts”Reader does not run HTML or scripts included in a Markdown file. HTML-like content appears as text.
- Links to websites and email addresses open in your usual Windows app.
- Links that try to run scripts or open unsupported locations are blocked.
- Links to headings stay inside the current document.
Images
Section titled “Images”- Images stored beside the Markdown file can appear in the document.
- Images from the web can reveal that you opened a document to the image host.
- Use the remote-image setting to allow or block images from the web.
Your files
Section titled “Your files”Reader is read-only. Opening, searching, zooming, or changing the reader theme does not modify the Markdown file.
