Full method & limitsKey Features
Plain Text to PDF
Convert plain .txt files — or just paste text — into clean, printable PDFs with automatic line wrapping and pagination. Original line breaks and paragraph spacing are retained.
Paste Text Instantly
No file handy? Type or paste text directly into the tool and it joins your list as a document, ready to become a PDF without saving a .txt first.
Typography & Page Setup
Set the font size, choose A4 or Letter paper, adjust margins, pick line spacing, and add page numbers to control readability, line length, and page breaks.
Multiple Files
Add several TXT files at once; each file becomes its own PDF with the same layout settings. Download files individually or together as a ZIP archive.
Chinese & Japanese Support
Files are decoded as UTF-8 with GBK, Big5, and Windows-1252 fallbacks. Chinese characters, Hiragana, and Katakana are written with an embedded font that is downloaded only when your text needs it.
Printable, Stable Layout
Turn unformatted text into a portable document with consistent margins, automatic page breaks, and selectable text for reading, printing, and archiving.
Private & Local
Conversion runs entirely in your browser using pdf-lib. Your text files are never uploaded to any server, suitable for personal notes and sensitive logs.

How to Convert TXT to PDF
Why Convert TXT to PDF
TXT files are simple, portable, and easy to create, but they do not include a paper size, font, margins, or page breaks. Converting them to PDF turns raw text into a stable document that is easier to print, share, review, and archive across devices.
What TXT Files Contain
A plain-text file stores characters, spaces, tabs, and line breaks. It does not store visual formatting such as fonts, bold text, colors, headings, images, tables, page numbers, or document margins. The PDF converter supplies these missing layout decisions when it creates the final pages.
How Conversion Works
Each TXT file is placed onto PDF pages with automatic line wrapping and pagination. Original line and paragraph breaks are retained, while the selected font size, page size, margins, and line spacing determine the length of each line and the final number of pages. You can also add page numbers in the footer. When you add multiple files, each TXT file becomes a separate PDF.
Choose the Right Layout
Use the layout settings to fit your intended use:
- Font size: A moderate size improves general readability; a smaller size can fit more lines for dense text or logs.
- A4: Common for international printing and most regions outside the United States.
- Letter: Common for business printing in the United States and Canada.
- Margins: Moderate margins improve reading comfort and leave room for printing; narrower margins fit more content but make long lines harder to read.
- Line spacing: Increase it for comfortable reading of long documents, or keep it tight for dense logs and code.
- Page numbers: Add a footer number to each page for printouts and multi-page handouts.
Because these choices affect line wrapping and pagination, review the generated PDF before sharing it.
Common Use Cases
Use TXT to PDF to:
- Turn meeting notes, study notes, drafts, and transcripts into printable documents.
- Paste a quick thought, snippet, or quote and turn it into a clean PDF without saving a file first.
- Convert application logs, system logs, and console output into a shareable review file.
- Create simple PDF archives from raw text exports.
- Prepare text files for email attachments, printing, or offline reading.
- Convert multiple TXT files into matching PDFs for a consistent archive.
Character Encoding and Fonts
For reliable conversion, save text files as UTF-8 and check that the original file displays correctly in a text editor first. Files saved in legacy encodings are still handled: the decoder tries UTF-8, then GBK, Big5, and Windows-1252, and the options panel shows which one was used. Basic Latin and Western European accents are written with the standard PDF fonts. Chinese characters, Hiragana, and Katakana are written with an embedded font covering GB2312, downloaded only when the text actually needs it. Arabic, Thai, Cyrillic, Greek, emoji, and rare or historic CJK glyphs are outside that coverage.
When to Use Another Tool
TXT to PDF is designed for plain text. If your content needs a document hierarchy, formatted code, tables, images, hyperlinks, advanced styling, or a branded report layout, use Markdown to PDF, HTML to PDF, or a full document editor instead. That gives you more control before creating the final PDF.
