TXT to PDF Converter

How to Use TXT to PDF Converter

1. Upload your plain text (.txt) file using the file selector or drag-and-drop interface.
2. The tool reads the file entirely within the browser, preserving your privacy by avoiding any server upload.
3. Once processed, the tool generates a PDF formatted to A4 size (595.28 x 841.89 points) with Courier monospace font at 11pt and 1.4 line height.
4. Download the resulting PDF file directly to your device for use or sharing.

How It Works

This converter uses the pdf-lib JavaScript library to create PDF documents entirely client-side. It reads the UTF-8 encoded text input and formats it onto A4 pages measuring exactly 595.28 x 841.89 points. The text is rendered using the Courier monospace font at an 11pt size with a line height multiplier of 1.4 for clear line separation.

To ensure lines fit within page margins (50pt on all sides), the tool implements a binary search algorithm to perform word-aware line wrapping. This algorithm determines the maximum number of characters that fit per line without breaking words unnecessarily. For exceptionally long words that exceed the line width, the converter applies hard breaks.

Pagination is automatic based on the remaining vertical space on each page after accounting for margins. If the uploaded file is empty, the tool produces a blank single-page PDF document. Empty lines in the text input are preserved as blank lines in the output PDF.

Example

Hello, World!
This is a sample text file to be converted.

Thank you.

Output PDF pages:
- Page 1 (A4, 595.28 x 841.89 points)
- Text rendered in Courier 11pt with 1.4 line height
- Lines:
  Hello, World!
  This is a sample text file to be converted.

  Thank you.
