How do I convert an RST file to TXT?

Upload your RST file using the choose-file button or drag-and-drop, select 'TXT' as the output format, and click 'Convert'. The converter will strip all reStructuredText markup—headings, bold, links, bullet lists—and produce a plain text file preserving the raw content. Download the TXT file instantly.

Why should I convert RST to TXT?

RST is a lightweight markup language used in Python documentation and technical writing; it requires a parser to be viewed properly. Converting to TXT yields a universally readable plain-text file that opens in any editor, imports cleanly into spreadsheets or databases, and eliminates markup noise. TXT files are also smaller than RST when you don't need formatting.

What happens to RST markup and metadata during conversion?

All RST markup—section titles, emphasis, strong text, hyperlinks, bullet lists—is removed during conversion. The output is pure plain-text content without any formatting tokens. Standard paragraphs remain intact, but any reStructuredText directives (e.g., code blocks, admonitions, footnotes) are flattened or discarded depending on their nature. No metadata, such as document title or author, is preserved unless it appears as plain text.
