HTML/Text Converter
? Frequently Asked Questions
What does HTML to Text conversion do?
It strips all HTML tags and converts formatted HTML content to plain text while preserving the actual text content. Links, images, and styling are removed, leaving only readable text.
Does it preserve line breaks and paragraphs?
Yes, the converter maintains paragraph structure by converting <p>, <br>, and <div> tags to appropriate line breaks. List items (<li>) are converted to separate lines with optional bullet points.
Can it convert text back to HTML?
Yes! The tool works bi-directionally. It can convert plain text to HTML by wrapping paragraphs in <p> tags, converting line breaks to <br>, and escaping special characters like < and >.
How are links handled during conversion?
When converting HTML to text, links can either be removed entirely or preserved in formats like 'text (url)' or '[text](url)'. This maintains link information while creating readable plain text.
Will it clean up messy HTML from Word or email?
Yes, the tool excels at cleaning HTML pasted from Microsoft Word, emails, or websites. It removes inline styles, proprietary tags, and formatting code, leaving clean text or minimal HTML.
