Frequently asked questions
What files does it accept?
Modern Word documents in .docx format. The output is plain text.
Does it handle old .doc files?
No — it targets the .docx (Office Open XML) format, not the legacy binary .doc format.
Is my document uploaded?
No. Extraction runs entirely in your browser, so the file stays on your device — safe for confidential material.
Does it keep formatting like bold or tables?
It extracts the plain text content, so styling is dropped. The goal is clean, reusable text you can feed into other tools.
Can I chain the output into another tool?
Yes — that's a core use. Plain text out means you can pipe it straight into translate, summarize, or any text tool.
