About formats

TXT

TXT is a plain text file format that stores unformatted character data without any styling or metadata. The TXT format is universally supported by virtually every text editor and operating system, making it the simplest and most portable way to exchange text content. TXT files commonly use the .txt extension and are encoded as ASCII or UTF-8.

EPUB

EPUB (Electronic Publication) is a free, open e-book standard maintained by the W3C (formerly IDPF). EPUB files are ZIP-based archives containing XHTML content, CSS styling, images, and navigation elements, providing reflowable content that adapts to different screen sizes. EPUB is the most widely supported e-book format and is read by Apple Books, Google Play Books, Kobo, Calibre, and most e-readers except older Kindle devices.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is converting TXT to EPUB free?

Yes. This TXT → EPUB converter runs entirely in your browser and is completely free — no account, no credits, no watermark.

Which devices and platforms can I use to convert TXT to EPUB?

Any modern device with a current web browser: Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iPhone and iPad. There is nothing to install — the conversion happens locally.

Are my TXT files uploaded to a server?

No. Files never leave your device. The entire TXT → EPUB conversion runs locally in your browser, so your data stays private.

Can I convert multiple TXT files at once?

Yes — batch conversion is supported. Add as many TXT files as you like and convert them to EPUB in one pass, then download the results together.

What is the maximum file size?

There is no fixed server-side limit because the conversion happens in your browser. Practical limits depend on the available memory and CPU of your device.

Will converting TXT to EPUB lose quality?

No. EPUB is a lossless format (or used in a lossless mode here), so the original data from your TXT file is preserved bit-for-bit in the converted result.

Does EPUB support transparency from TXT?

Yes. EPUB supports an alpha channel, so any transparent regions of your TXT file will be preserved as transparent in the converted file.

How will the file size change after converting TXT to EPUB?

Both formats use comparable compression, so the EPUB output will be similar in size to your TXT file — typically within 10–20% of each other.
