Choose HTML for the most detailed formatting — when you need to preserve the exact appearance and layout of content.
Markdown is ideal for most note-taking applications — it offers a good balance of formatting and compatibility.
Plain text works best when you need just the content without any formatting — perfect for simple notes or copying into applications that don't support rich text.
Use selection tool for grabbing specific sections — highlight exactly what you want instead of copying an entire page when you only need a small part.
