Convert DOCX to TXT

The words, and nothing else. TXT stores characters and line breaks, so bold, italics, headings, fonts, colours, tables, images, headers and footers are all discarded — not degraded, removed. That is the correct outcome when you want the text for indexing, diffing or scripting, and the wrong one if the formatting carried meaning. Plain text is the most durable format there is: it will still be readable when every proprietary format of this decade is unopenable. TXT carries no styling, no images, no tables and no page structure, so any layout in the source is discarded permanently.

Yes, and the DOCX would not have. Browsers ship a decoder for TXT and none for DOCX, so a DOCX link forces a download while a TXT renders inline. That is usually the deciding factor when the file is going onto a web page rather than into an application.

Yes — basic DOCX -> TXT conversion is free with no registration. Premium adds higher per-file size limits, more parallel batch workers, and removes ads.

Free accounts: up to 100 MB per DOCX file. Premium: typically 1 GB per file, depending on the DOCX source type. Very large files get split into chunks server-side when the TXT format permits.

Conversion preserves every piece of information that both DOCX and TXT can represent. Features the TXT format cannot store (vector data in raster output, formulas in plain-text output, embedded fonts in image output) are rasterized or stripped — the result page flags any feature loss explicitly. A DOCX is a ZIP archive of XML parts — document body, styles, numbering, relationships — plus the media files it references. A TXT file is just an encoded character stream, normally UTF-8 today, with the only structural markers being newlines.

Yes — drop multiple DOCX files into the upload zone and they queue in parallel. Premium has more parallel workers; on a 50-file batch this is the difference between minutes and seconds.

Yes — the UI is responsive and the conversion pipeline runs server-side, so mobile devices upload-then-download just like desktops. iOS and Android browser file pickers (camera roll, Files app) work end-to-end without an app.

Chrome, Firefox, Safari (15+), Edge, and Opera. The converter uses a plain `<input type="file">` upload — no WebAssembly or PWA dependencies — so even older browsers convert DOCX to TXT successfully.

Yes — uploaded DOCX files are processed in isolated workers and deleted within minutes. We never view, retain, or share content. See /privacy/ for the data-retention window. DOCX is inspectable, diffable and readable by Google Docs, LibreOffice, Pages and every modern word processor.

Disable any pop-up blocker, then click the download button manually. The result link stays active for 24 hours, so if your network fails mid-download you can re-trigger from the result page without re-uploading the DOCX.

Typically seconds for small files, a minute or two for files near the size cap. The server-side pipeline runs on dedicated workers — your laptop CPU is not the bottleneck.
