Converting HTML to plain text strips all formatting and extracts just the raw text content. This is useful for data processing, text analysis, or when you need the content without any formatting overhead.
HTML (HyperText Markup Language, introduced in 1993) uses None (text-based; gzip-compressible in transit) compression. TXT (Plain Text File, introduced in 1963) uses None compression. HTML browser support: Universal. TXT browser support: Universal.
Converting from uncompressed HTML to TXT (lossless) reduces file size dramatically while preserving every bit of the original data. This is the ideal way to make large uncompressed files more manageable without any quality sacrifice.
Typical HTML file size: A single web page: ~20-100 KB (excluding external assets). Typical TXT file size: A 10,000-word document: ~50-60 KB.
For the best conversion results, always start from the highest quality source file available. Converting from a previously compressed file compounds any existing compression artifacts. When in doubt, use higher quality settings — you can always re-convert at lower quality later, but you cannot recover quality that has been lost.
