Strip a .docx down to its words in a .txt file, with one line per paragraph. Useful for pasting somewhere that will not take formatting.
The conversion runs entirely in your browser. Your files stay on your device from start to finish, there is no server copy, and nothing is stored once you leave the page. That is true for every tool on FileFlip.
A .docx is a zip full of XML, which is why pasting one into a plain text field gives you nothing useful. This tool opens it properly and writes out just the words, one line per paragraph, in a UTF-8 .txt file. Handy for feeding a document into something that only takes plain text, for diffing two versions, or for stripping formatting you did not ask for.
Batches are fine here. Each document becomes its own .txt file.
There is nothing to configure. The text comes out in document order, one line per paragraph.
A single file, or a zip when you converted several at once.
Bold, italic, headings, colours and styles all go. That is the point of plain text. If you want the structure kept, convert to PDF instead.
Only paragraph text is read. A cell's contents may appear as loose lines, and pictures leave nothing behind.
Accented characters and non Latin scripts come through intact, which is not true of every tool that claims to do this.
