MD to TXT Conversion FAQ
Is the MD to TXT converter free?
+
Yes. One conversion an hour is free, with no account needed, for a file within the free size limit. A paid plan removes the hourly limit and the size limit, and lets you add several files to one job.
Why convert between MD and TXT when they are the same kind of file?
+
Because the file has to open on the other end, and version and vendor differences decide whether it will. Two formats in the same family can still be years apart in what software reads them, how large they are on disk, and which features they carry. The conversion normalises the file onto whichever one the recipient actually supports. MD is Markdown, John Gruber’s 2004 plain-text syntax for writing structured documents that stay readable as source. TXT is plain text — characters and line breaks with no formatting layer whatsoever.
How big an MD file can I convert to TXT?
+
Free conversions have a size limit per file, set by the type of file, and the page tells you when a file is over it. A paid plan removes that limit, so much larger files can be converted.
Can I convert many MD files to TXT at once?
+
Several files in one job need a paid plan. Free use is one file per conversion, one conversion an hour. On a paid plan you can add several files to one job, then download each result on its own or all of them in one ZIP.
Does the MD to TXT converter work on phones and tablets?
+
Yes — the UI is responsive and the conversion pipeline runs server-side, so mobile devices upload-then-download just like desktops. iOS and Android browser file pickers (camera roll, Files app) work end-to-end.
Which browsers does the MD to TXT converter support?
+
Chrome, Firefox, Safari (15+), Edge, and Opera. The converter uses standard `<input type="file">` upload — no WebAssembly or PWA dependencies — so even older browsers work.
Are my MD files kept private?
+
Yes. Uploaded MD files are processed on our own servers and are never viewed or shared. Uploads and results are deleted automatically about 24 hours after conversion. See /privacy/ for the full policy.
What if the TXT download doesn't start automatically?
+
Disable any pop-up blocker, then click the download button manually. The result link stays active for 24 hours, so if your network fails mid-download, you can re-trigger from the result page without re-uploading the MD.
How long does MD to TXT conversion take?
+
It depends on the size and length of the file. Small documents and images are usually ready quickly. Long videos take the longest, because most video conversions re-encode every frame.
Do I need to install software to convert MD to TXT?
+
No — the converter runs entirely in your browser plus our servers. No desktop install, no plugin, no extension. Just upload, wait, download.
