Word to text or PDF

Read the text from a .docx file and download a .txt file or a plain PDF.

This is the document text, not a copy of the Word layout. Old .doc files, text boxes, and comments are not read. Letters outside a basic Latin set become a question mark in the PDF.

This reads the words in a modern Word file and saves them as a text file or a plain PDF. It does not copy the Word layout, headers, text boxes, or comments. An old .doc file is not read. Letters outside a basic Latin set can become a question mark in the PDF. Use it when you need the words, not a look-alike of the document.

  1. 1Drop a .docx file.
  2. 2Read the text.
  3. 3Download .txt or a plain PDF.

The download is the document text. It is not a replica of the Word file.
