Frequently Asked Questions
What happens to images?
Images, charts, drawings, and all other non-text elements are completely removed during conversion. The TXT format supports only plain text characters, so visual content cannot be preserved.
Will my paragraphs stay separate?
Yes, we carefully preserve line breaks and paragraph spacing so that your text output remains readable, well-structured, and maintains the logical flow of your original document.
Does it support special characters?
Yes, we use UTF-8 encoding for the text output, which ensures that accented characters, international symbols, currency signs, emojis, and other special characters are preserved correctly in the result.
Is the conversion fast?
Extremely fast. Extracting text is much quicker than rendering complex PDFs or converting between formatted document types, so you can convert even very large documents with hundreds of pages in just a few seconds.
