Word ↔ Plain Text
Extract plain text from DOCX files or turn a TXT file into a Word document. Everything runs in your browser.
Strip a DOCX document down to plain text - no fonts, images, or formatting, just the words - or take a plain TXT file and turn it into a real Word document with each line as its own paragraph. Useful for feeding a document into a tool that only accepts plain text, stripping tracked-changes clutter before pasting elsewhere, or converting a script or notes file into a shareable Word document. Both directions run locally in your browser.

Common questions
Does DOCX to TXT preserve formatting?
No. Plain text intentionally removes fonts, images, tables, and styling while preserving readable text.
How is a TXT file added to Word?
Each text line becomes a Word paragraph, including blank lines.
Does it upload my file?
No - conversion runs entirely in your browser.
Will tables or bullet lists survive DOCX to TXT?
Table cell text and list item text are extracted as plain lines, but the visual table grid and bullet markers are not preserved.
