How to convert TXT to DOCX

DOCX is the modern Office Open XML format: smaller files, better recovery from damage and full support in Microsoft Office, Google Workspace and Apple iWork. This converter opens the TXT with LibreOffice and saves it as DOCX, preserving text, styles, tables and images as faithfully as possible. It is the quickest way to open an incompatible file or to meet a format requirement without installing an office suite.

Step 1: Choose your TXT file
Drag and drop a .txt file onto the converter or click to browse. It works on desktop, tablet and phone.
Step 2: Convert to DOCX
The file is uploaded securely and saved as DOCX by LibreOffice in a temporary, isolated folder.
Step 3: Download the DOCX
Save the DOCX file to your device. You can start again with another file right away.

About the formats

What is TXT?

TXT is the plain-text format: raw characters with no formatting, styles or embedded objects. Because it makes no assumptions about the reader, a TXT file opens in any text editor, terminal, phone or device. It is the most compatible format that exists.

Use TXT for notes, logs, code and any content that must remain readable in every tool, now and in the future. Choose plain text when you need universal compatibility and have no need for formatting.

What is DOCX?

DOCX (Word Open XML) is the modern editable format for word processor documents, used by Microsoft Word, Google Docs and LibreOffice. Despite the file extension, a DOCX file is a ZIP container holding the document text and structure as XML. It has been the default format for Word documents since 2007.

Use DOCX when you need an editable document that others can open and change, reports, letters, essays and any text that will be revised or worked on together. Its open XML structure also makes it the reliable choice for converting into PDF before sharing.
