Conversion Requirements
You can easily use Aspose.Total for Java directly from a Maven based project and include Aspose.PDF for Java and Aspose.Cells for Java in your pom.xml.
Convert Protected XML to MD via Java
If your XML document is password protected, you cannot convert it to MD without the password. Using the API, you can first open the protected document using a valid password and convert it after it. In order to open the encrypted file, you can initialize a new instance of the Document class and pass filename and password as arguments.
Convert XML File to MD with Watermark via Java
While converting XML file to MD, you can also add watermark to your output MD file format. In order to add a watermark, create a new Workbook to open the converted XLSX file. Select Worksheet via its index, create a Shape and use its addTextEffect function, set colors, transparency and more. After that you can save your XLSX document as MD with Watermark.

What is XML File Format?
XML, which stands for Extensible Markup Language, is a file format that shares similarities with HTML but has a different purpose and structure. The primary objective of XML is to store and transport data in a self-describing and platform-independent manner. It provides a set of rules for defining custom tags that allow users to create their own markup languages specific to their needs.
The key advantage of XML is its ability to represent data in a format that is both human-readable and machine-readable. This makes it suitable for creating data protocols and exchanging structured information over networks such as the World Wide Web (WWW). XML-based file formats, such as Microsoft Open XML, LibreOffice OpenDocument, XHTML, and SVG, utilize XML to define the structure and content of their documents.
The extensibility of XML is denoted by the “X” in its name, which implies that the language can be expanded to include new tags and elements as required. This flexibility allows XML to adapt to diverse data structures and requirements, making it widely adopted in various industries and domains.
However, one drawback of XML is its verbosity. XML files can be relatively large due to the inclusion of markup tags and repetitive structure. This can make XML documents more challenging to read and process, especially when dealing with large datasets. Care must be taken to manage the markup tags effectively to avoid errors or inconsistencies in the data.
What is MD File Format?
MD, or Markdown, is a lightweight markup language commonly used for formatting plain text documents. It was created by John Gruber in 2004 with the goal of allowing writers to focus on content without the distractions of complex formatting. Markdown uses simple and intuitive syntax that can be easily converted into HTML or other document formats.
In Markdown, you can apply formatting to text by using a combination of special characters and plain text. For example, you can use asterisks or underscores to create italic or bold text, hashtags to create headings, and hyphens or asterisks to create lists. Markdown also supports adding links, images, code snippets, and tables.
One of the advantages of Markdown is its readability in its raw form, as it closely resembles plain text. It can be written in any text editor and easily converted into HTML or other formats using various tools and converters. Markdown files have the .md or .markdown file extension.
Markdown is widely used for writing documentation, creating blog posts, and even in version control systems like Git. Its simplicity and versatility have made it a popular choice among writers, developers, and content creators for creating structured and well-formatted documents with minimal effort.
