What changes when converting AsciiDoc to HTML?
Convert to HTML when the output is meant to be read in a browser, indexed by search engines, linked from other pages, or embedded in a web application. It is a strong target for documentation, knowledge-base content, public reports, landing pages, and long-form articles that need responsive display and hyperlinkable sections. Use HTML when accessibility, discoverability, and browser delivery matter more than preserving an exact print layout. It is also useful as an intermediate format for content pipelines that later restyle or templatize the output.
What should I review after converting AsciiDoc to HTML?
