+Most built-in back-ends come with a command to convert the selected region
+into a selected format and replace this region by the exported output.  Here
+is a list of such conversion commands:
+
+@table @code
+@item org-html-convert-region-to-html
+Convert the selected region into HTML.
+@item @item org-latex-convert-region-to-latex
+Convert the selected region into @LaTeX{}.

+Convert the selected region into @code{Texinfo}.
+@item org-md-convert-region-to-md
+Convert the selected region into @code{MarkDown}.
+@end table
+
+This is particularily useful for converting tables and lists in foreign
+buffers.  E.g., in a HTML buffer, you can turn on @code{orgstruct-mode}, then
+use Org commands for editing a list, and finally select and convert the list
+with @code{M-x org-html-convert-region-to-html RET}.
