Convert Microsoft Word files to plain text quickly and accurately. Upload DOCX or DOC files, extract readable content, preserve paragraph structure and line breaks, and download TXT output files in your browser with no server upload.
The Word to TXT Converter converts Microsoft Word files (.docx and .doc)
into plain text (.txt) directly in your browser. It extracts readable content, removes Word-specific
formatting, and keeps text flow with paragraph and line-break controls.
By default, the tool extracts main document text only. You can also include extra sources such as headers, footers, comments, tracked changes, and footnotes/endnotes. This gives you control over how much metadata is exported to plain text for archiving, migration, or AI preprocessing.
You can export one TXT file per uploaded Word document, or merge all converted documents into one combined UTF-8 text file. For batch workflows, each file can be downloaded individually or bundled as a ZIP archive.
DOCX files provide the most accurate extraction because content is stored in structured XML. Legacy DOC files are supported with best-effort text extraction, but complex legacy formatting may reduce precision. For best results, save older DOC files as DOCX before conversion when possible.
