HTML to Plain Text
Convert HTML snippets into readable plain text for emails, notes, migrations, and content review.
Paste an HTML fragment, email body, CMS export, or copied page source and convert it to readable plain text without uploading your content. The output is best for review, notes, tickets, documentation drafts, and text-only email copy.
What is HTML to plain text conversion?
HTML to plain text conversion turns marked-up content into readable text by keeping the words people see and replacing structural markup with sensible spacing. It is useful when preparing text-only emails, cleaning copied CMS content, reviewing snippets in issue trackers, or extracting readable copy from a small web fragment.
This tool removes page behavior and styling content, decodes common character references, and keeps practical structure such as headings, paragraphs, list items, table cells, and line breaks. Options let you decide whether link URLs and image descriptions should remain in the text.
The result is an editable plain-text draft, not a full accessibility tree or rich web-page rendering. Complex pages, forms, hidden text, generated content, malformed markup, and deeply nested tables may need manual review before you publish or archive the output.
How it works
Paste HTML, choose how to treat links, lists, image descriptions, and table cells, then convert. The text is prepared on this page and stays in your browser unless you copy or download it.
For best results, paste the content fragment you want to preserve rather than an entire application shell. Review any extracted URLs before sharing the output, especially if the original source was untrusted or contained tracking links.
