How to convert TXT to PDF
- Drop the file.
- Nothing to choose.
- Press Convert and download.
What happens to your file
The text is opened by LibreOffice as UTF-8 and laid out on A4 pages in Liberation Serif at a readable size, with the line breaks it had; there is nothing else to keep. Deleted on schedule.
Questions
My text has boxes where letters should be?
The file is not UTF-8 — an old Windows export is usually Latin-1 or CP1252. Open it in a text editor, save as UTF-8, and convert again.
Do it once, not on every form
Fixing a file here means downloading it and going back to the form. The Fylane extension does this work inside the form instead, on the file you already have.
And it keeps the result. The next application that asks for a résumé, a cover letter and a photo fills all three from one tap, each one refitted to what that site accepts.
Your files stay in the browser, encrypted, on your machine. Nothing is uploaded to keep them and nothing is sent anywhere to fill a form.
