Online PDF to TXT conversion

The conversion from PDF to TXT is a simplified method of extracting raw textual data from documents. PDF, or Portable Document Format, is a versatile file type known for preserving the layout, fonts, images, and graphics of source documents, making it ideal for presentations and formal document sharing. However, its intricate format can make data extraction or content searching cumbersome, especially when only the text is needed.

This is where TXT comes in. As a plain text format, TXT doesn't carry any formatting - no fonts, images, or layout specifics. It's just raw, unformatted text, making it ideal for tasks that demand simplicity, like data analysis, programming, or text processing.

Translating a PDF to TXT essentially strips down the document, retaining only the alphabets, numbers, and basic punctuation. This conversion is crucial for professionals who need to analyze the content without the distractions of graphics or formatting.

There are myriad tools and software available for PDF to TXT conversion, each varying in its accuracy and efficiency. A quality converter will minimize errors, such as missed characters or merged words, ensuring the integrity of the extracted text.

Is it safe to convert PDF to TXT Online?

Our tool converts an uploaded copy of your original file. The original file stays on your computer and is unaffected by the process. There is no risk of data loss by conversion.

Also, your data is safe with us. We delete all uploads from our servers after one hour. In other words, an hour after you upload your files, those files are purged from our servers forever. You don't need to worry about your content being stored on the server.
