HTML to Text

Paste HTML markup or upload an HTML file and extract readable plain text directly in your browser.

Plain text output

What HTML to Text Is Good For

This tool is useful when you have HTML markup but need plain readable text for notes, audits, support work, search indexing, quick copy cleanup, or preparing text for another system that does not accept HTML.

You can either paste raw markup directly or upload an HTML file, then extract the text without manually stripping tags line by line.

What the Tool Removes

The converter removes markup such as tags, scripts, and styles, then tries to keep the readable content in a cleaner text form. Basic block structure is preserved where practical so the result is easier to scan.

It is best for simplification and cleanup, not for retaining every visual or semantic nuance of the original document.

How to Convert HTML to Text

  1. Paste HTML markup or upload one `.html` file.
  2. Click `Convert to text`.
  3. Review and copy the plain text output.

FAQ

Does this keep the visible wording but remove tags?

Yes. The goal is to strip away markup and return readable text content, not to preserve full HTML structure.

Will scripts and styles be included in the output?

No. Script, style, and noscript blocks are removed before plain text is extracted.

Is this intended for perfect semantic extraction?

No. It is a practical cleanup tool for readable text output, not a full document reconstruction engine.
