Text to PDF
Quick start
Paste plain text into the editor or choose a TXT file from your device.
Select US Letter, A4, or US Legal, then set orientation, margins, font, size, spacing, and page numbers.
Create the PDF locally. Page through the actual output and zoom in to check line breaks.
Save the PDF to your device. Keep the source text if you may need to revise it later.
Plain text is useful for notes, meeting minutes, instructions, correspondence, and draft documents. It does not carry a fixed page size or font. When you convert it to PDF, those choices become part of the file, so the document opens with a consistent page layout in a PDF viewer.
This tool creates real PDF text rather than placing a picture of your words on each page. Long lines wrap within the selected margins. Existing line breaks and blank lines stay in place. The preview displays the generated PDF itself, so you can check its page count and line breaks before saving it.
The 8.5 by 11 inch default suits most US printers, school documents, and office handouts.
Normal 0.75 inch margins and 12 point text are a practical starting point. Increase spacing for material that readers will annotate.
Choose US Legal for a longer page or A4 when a recipient expects an international paper size. Landscape is available for wide content.
Add centered page numbers to multi-page notes or instructions. Turn them off for a short letter or cover page.
The built-in sans serif, serif, and monospace choices handle common Western text. Some scripts, technical symbols, and emoji require a suitable font. If a selected font cannot represent a character, the converter reports it instead of producing a PDF with missing glyphs. You can select a TTF or OTF font from your device, then create the PDF again.
TXT is plain text. The converter does not interpret Markdown headings, HTML tags, hyperlinks, tables, or rich-text formatting. If you need a composed document with images and page elements, use Create PDF. For an existing PDF that needs visible labels or annotations, use Add text to PDF.
Yes. The TXT file is read and converted in your browser. Its contents are not sent to a conversion server.
Yes. The tool draws real text into the PDF, not a screenshot of your text. Search and selection depend on the PDF viewer and on whether the chosen font represents the characters correctly.
Pasted text works directly. TXT files can be UTF-8 or UTF-16 with a byte order mark. Files that cannot be decoded as text are rejected rather than silently changing their characters.
Yes. Choose Custom TTF or OTF in the workspace and select a font file from your device. A custom font can help with characters that the built-in fonts cannot represent.
No. This is a plain-text converter. Markdown symbols and HTML tags are printed as text. Use Create PDF if you need images, shapes, or positioned content.
US Letter, 8.5 by 11 inches, is the default for typical home and office printing. US Legal is available for longer pages, and A4 is available for international sharing.
Yes. The converter keeps line breaks and blank lines, wraps lines that exceed the printable width, and recognizes a form-feed character as an explicit page break.
Keep your original TXT file or copy of the text for easy editing. The PDF is intended for reading, sharing, and printing, not as a replacement for the source text.
