Convert HTML to TXT

Convert HTML to TXT when the content of a web page is needed as a plain text file. The result does not display HTML markup and works for reading, searching, or working with the text itself.

What happens when you convert HTML to TXT

HTML describes a page structure: headings, links, blocks, and presentation. It is useful in a browser, but it is not the right choice when you need text without tags or a visual layout.

After you convert HTML to TXT, you get a plain text document. It does not retain the look of the page, so judge tables, images, links, and block placement by whether you need the information itself rather than the original design.

• HTML content is written to a text file.
• Page styling and visual layout are not reproduced in TXT.
• A text file is easy to open in an editor, search, or pass on.

How to convert HTML to TXT

1. Upload your HTML file on this page.
2. Select TXT as the result format.
3. Start the conversion.
4. Download the text file and open it.

When plain text is better than a web page

• Send an article for proofreading without site navigation and design elements.
• Prepare page content for a word search.
• Keep text from a local HTML export for later work.
• Separate data and notes from the page presentation before processing them by hand.

Check what you need to keep

1. Open the HTML in a browser and make sure it contains the text you need rather than only links to outside material.
2. Keep the original when design, links, tables, or images matter.
3. Check the TXT after download if the order of text fragments matters.
