RemoveHtmlTags Converter

Introduction

This converter modifies a kramdown element tree and conditionally removes all block and/or span HTML elements, XML processing instructions and style as well as script tags from it. The resulting element tree should in most cases only contain “native” kramdown elements and is therefore better suited for converters that do not output HTML (like the kramdown converter or the latex converter).

A sample usage may be the following to convert a full HTML document (i.e. one that includes the HTML doctype, the HTML head section, …) into a kramdown document:

kramdown -i html -o remove_html_tags,kramdown my_document.html
