Text to PDF
For novels and manuscripts, A5 at 11 pt reads well; for submissions, A4 or Letter at 10.5 pt.
Notes and long text, as a tidy PDF
Manuscripts written in a notes app, blog drafts, meeting notes — sending them as raw TXT means awkward line lengths and, on some systems, garbled characters. Paste the text or choose a TXT file and this tool wraps lines to the page width, breaks pages and adds page numbers. Fonts are embedded in the PDF, so it looks identical on any device.
Options
- Paper — A4 for most of the world, US Letter for North America, A5 for a book-like size that's comfortable on a phone.
- Font size, spacing, margins — the defaults (10.5 pt, normal, 22 mm) suit most documents. Try 14 pt for large-print copies.
- Headings — lines starting with “# ” or “## ” become larger bold headings, handy for simple Markdown text.
- Indent first line — indents each paragraph, like a novel or essay.
Paragraphs
Blocks separated by blank lines are treated as paragraphs with space between them; line breaks inside a paragraph are kept. Long texts flow onto as many pages as needed — the preview shows the first page and the total page count appears below. TXT files in UTF-8 and legacy encodings are detected automatically.
For documents with tables or images, use Word to PDF. Your text is turned into a PDF on this device and never uploaded. A title, if given, appears at the top of page 1 and is saved as the PDF's document title.
Frequently asked questions
Can I add bold text or colors?
This tool is for plain text. Only headings (# ) become bold.
Does it work for a whole novel?
Yes, though hundreds of pages take a while. Splitting by chapter is faster.
Which characters are supported?
Latin, Greek and Cyrillic use Noto Sans; Korean, Chinese and Japanese characters use Noto Sans KR. Other scripts may not display.
