Text to PDF turns a block of plain text into a tidy PDF: paste the text or upload a .txt, .md or .log file, then choose the paper size, font size, line spacing, margins and whether to print page numbers, and the right-hand side immediately shows a first-page preview and the total page count. The line-breaking rules handle mixed CJK and Latin text — CJK and full-width characters can break at any position, Latin text breaks at word boundaries, and an over-long Latin word or URL that still does not fit on a line of its own is split character by character; a Tab becomes four spaces.

It treats its input as plain text: upload a .md file and the # and * are printed as they are, never rendered as headings or bold. To render Markdown, use “Markdown to PDF”; when the input is a Word document, use “Word to PDF”.

1. 01Enter the textpaste into the “Input text” box, or click “Upload a txt / md file” to read one (the file name becomes the PDF name); the character count appears below.
2. 02Adjust the layoutpaper A4 or Letter; font size 9–24 pt (12 by default); line spacing 1.2–2.4× (1.6 by default); margins 8–35 mm (20 by default); “Show page numbers” prints “Page n of n” centred in the footer.
3. 03Watch the first-page previewit refreshes about 0.4 s after the text or a parameter changes and reports “n pages with the current settings”; above 200,000 characters it switches to manual and offers “Long text — click to refresh the preview”.
4. 04Generateclick “Generate and download PDF”; the progress bar shows “rendering page by page” and the download is named after the file (or text-document.pdf when nothing was uploaded).

Input

the text box, or a single .txt, .md or .log file (read as UTF-8 — a GBK file comes out as mojibake, so run “Text Encoding Converter” first); .doc and .docx are not supported.

Layout ability

one font size, one font, left-aligned; there are no headings, bold, centring or indentation, and no headers, footers or custom page-number formats.

Font

it uses the system CJK font of the device the browser runs on (Microsoft YaHei on Windows, PingFang on macOS), so glyphs can differ slightly between devices; no font file has to be downloaded.

Output form

one PNG bitmap per page (about 144 dpi), so the text cannot be selected, searched or read by a screen reader; with many pages the file is markedly larger than a text-based PDF.

What it does not do

it does not render Markdown (use “Markdown to PDF”), does not convert Word (use “Word to PDF”) and does not do two-column or vertical layout; if you need searchable text, generate the PDF and then run “PDF OCR”.

The text is laid out and the PDF generated locally in the browser, and the content is never uploaded to any server; the layout uses system fonts and downloads nothing. The data is released from memory when the page is closed.
