Summary

Word to TXT Converter reads your .docx file entirely inside the browser by treating it as a ZIP archive with JSZip, then parsing the embedded word/document.xml to pull out every paragraph of plain text. Because all processing is local, your documents never leave your device — making it safe for confidential contracts, reports, or personal files. The resulting .txt preserves paragraph breaks so the content stays readable after conversion.

How it works

  1. Click the upload area or drag a .docx file onto it.
  2. JSZip unzips the .docx package locally in your browser.
  3. The tool parses word/document.xml and extracts text from every paragraph and run element.
  4. A live preview shows the extracted plain text before you download.
  5. Click "Download TXT" to save the result as a .txt file named after your original document.
  6. Use "Copy All Text" to paste the content directly into another application.
