Each page’s text layer is read in order and written to a single .txt file. Note that scanned PDFs without a text layer (pure images) have no text to extract.

How to convert PDF to TXT

  1. Drop your PDF files onto the box above, or click Choose files.
  2. The output format is already set to TXT — adjust it per file if you need something else.
  3. Click Convert, then download your TXT files (or everything as one ZIP).

Free, no account, no watermarks — and because the conversion runs in your browser, your files are never uploaded to a server.
