Text to PDF
Convert your text files or pasted text into a PDF document.
How the Text to PDF works
To convert text to PDF, you can either upload a file or paste text directly.
If you have a text file, click 'Choose file' to select it from your device. The tool supports common text file formats.
Alternatively, you can paste your text into the 'Or paste text instead of a file' box. This is useful for smaller amounts of text or if you do not have a file.
Next, select your 'Page size'. You can choose between 'a4' or 'letter' formats. Then, set the 'Font size'. Options include '10', '11', or '12' points. The tool uses a monospaced font for consistent formatting.
After setting these options, click the 'Convert' button. The tool will process your input and generate a PDF document. You can then download the PDF to your device.
Formula used
text → layout engine → PDF 1.4 byte stream (Type 1 Courier, DCT-free)
| Symbol | Meaning |
|---|---|
| page size | A4 or Letter |
| font size | 10–12 pt monospaced |
| margins | 56 pt on all sides |
The PDF is assembled byte-by-byte in your browser — the standard structure is built directly, so the file works in every reader. Text never leaves your device, which is why this is safe for drafts and notes you would rather not upload.
Inputs used: Choose file, Page size, Font size, Or paste text instead of a file.
