    Download EPUB

    Download your new EPUB file immediately. Multiple outputs pack into a single ZIP archive.

Why convert TXT to EPUB

TXT (plain text file) works well when notes, logs, extracted copy, and simple archives. EPUB is the better destination when you need reflowable reading on phones, tablets, and e-readers. This TXT to EPUB tool keeps manuscripts and personal libraries on-device while you reflow them for readers, print, or the web.

When to use this tool

  • A tool, form, or teammate asked for EPUB, but you only have TXT.
  • You are optimizing for books and long-form reading across devices instead of staying in TXT.
  • You are moving a book between readers, print, and web formats — EPUB fits the next step better than TXT.

Good to know

  • Output characteristics follow EPUB: reflowable reading on phones, tablets, and e-readers.
  • Source quirks still apply — TXT is limited by no styles, images, or structured layout, and conversion cannot invent missing data.
  • Reflowable books may paginate differently after conversion; DRM-protected store books cannot be converted.
  • Browser limit: about 30 MB per book, up to 20 files per batch, with very long texts capped around 500,000 characters.
  • Need a bigger file? For large manuscripts or publisher packages, use Calibre, Sigil, or your word processor’s export, then convert a trimmed personal copy here if needed.
