Questions answered
Word to Text FAQ
Does Word to Text keep formatting?
No. TXT files contain plain text only, so fonts, page layout, images, tables, comments, and tracked changes are not retained.
Which Word documents are supported?
The local converter supports DOCX files. Open legacy DOC files in Word and save them as DOCX first.
Is my document uploaded?
No. The DOCX file remains on your device while the browser extracts its text.
