TXT to MD Optimization FAQ
Will my TXT formatting survive the conversion to MD?
+
Body text, headings, lists, tables, and inline images map cleanly from TXT to MD. Heavily-designed page layouts (multi-column spreads, text boxes, absolute-positioned graphics) may reflow because MD models the page differently than TXT — review complex layouts after conversion. MD is Markdown, John Gruber’s 2004 plain-text syntax for writing structured documents that stay readable as source.
Is the MD text selectable and searchable?
+
Yes — TXT to MD is a text-level conversion, so every word in the MD stays real, selectable, searchable text. This is different from rendering a document to images: nothing is rasterized unless the TXT itself embedded a picture.
Can I edit the MD file after converting from TXT?
+
That is the point of this conversion — the MD is a working document you can reopen and edit in its native app (Word, Google Docs, LibreOffice, PowerPoint, etc.). Change text, restyle, add pages, then re-export however you like.
Can I convert many TXT files to MD in one batch?
+
Several files in one job need a paid plan. Free use is one file per conversion, one conversion an hour. On a paid plan you can add several files to one job, then download each result on its own or all of them in one ZIP.
How accurate is the TXT to MD conversion?
+
Text fidelity is near-perfect; layout fidelity depends on how far TXT and MD differ structurally. A PDF-to-Word style change reconstructs an editable layout from a fixed one and is the hardest case; office-to-office and text-to-markup changes are nearly exact.
Is my TXT document private during conversion?
+
Yes. Uploaded TXT files are processed on our own conversion servers, no person reviews them, and they are never shared. The upload and the converted MD are both deleted automatically about 24 hours after the conversion, which leaves time to download the result. See /privacy/ for the full policy.
How long does converting TXT to MD take?
+
It depends on the size and length of the file. Small documents and images are usually ready quickly. Long videos take the longest, because most video conversions re-encode every frame.
Do I need Microsoft Office or any app installed to convert TXT to MD?
+
No — the conversion runs entirely on our servers. You only need the matching app if you want to edit the resulting MD afterward; the conversion itself needs nothing installed.
