Text to PDF
Convert plain text into a formatted PDF. You can upload .txt files or type directly into the built-in text editor. The tool supports multiple fonts, custom text colors, and a wide range of page sizes -- from A0 down to A10, plus US Letter, Legal, and Tabloid.
Supported Formats
| Input | Extensions |
|---|---|
| Plain text files | .txt |
| Direct text input | Type or paste into the editor |
How It Works
- Choose your input mode using the toggle at the top: Upload Files or Type Text.
- If uploading, drag and drop or click to select one or more
.txtfiles. If typing, enter your text directly in the textarea. - Configure the formatting options: font family, font size, text color, and page size.
- Click Create PDF. The output downloads as
text_to_pdf.pdf.
When uploading multiple files, their contents are concatenated with blank lines between them.
Options
| Option | Values | Default |
|---|---|---|

RTL languages (Arabic, Hebrew, Persian, Urdu) are automatically detected. When RTL text is found, the text direction and alignment switch accordingly.
Use Cases
- Converting code snippets or log files into a printable PDF with Courier font
- Creating a quick PDF from meeting notes typed on the spot
- Formatting a plain text manuscript with a specific font and page size for submission
- Producing a PDF version of a README or changelog for offline distribution
Tips
- Use the Type Text mode when you want to quickly convert clipboard content without saving it as a file first.
- Courier (monospace) is the best font choice for code, logs, or any content where column alignment matters.
- The page margins are fixed at 72 points (1 inch) on all sides.
