What TXT to Word does
Turn plain text into a Word document. Notes accumulate as .txt files — meeting scratch, exported chat logs, drafts written in a plain editor — and at some point they have to become something presentable with headings, styling and a page layout. This gives you an editable starting point rather than a blank page.
The document is built in your browser with the docx library and nothing is uploaded. The file name becomes a Title paragraph at the top, then each line of the text becomes one paragraph in Word's Normal style. A blank line in the text produces an empty paragraph, so the spacing you had in the editor is preserved; a long line wraps at the page margin as any Word paragraph does.
Encoding is read as UTF-8. Text saved by Windows Notepad in an older "ANSI" encoding can show accented characters wrongly — open it and save as UTF-8 first. Tabs are kept as tab characters, which Word renders at its default half-inch stops; aligned columns made with spaces will not line up once the font is proportional.
When you'd use it
- Notes typed on a phone that need to become a submittable document
- Log or transcript output that a client wants in Word
- A plain-text draft to hand to an editor who works in Word

Questions
Will it add formatting automatically?
No, and deliberately so. Text is placed with paragraph breaks intact and left unstyled, so you apply the headings and emphasis rather than having to undo guesses.
Are line breaks kept?
Yes. Paragraphs and blank lines carry over, so the structure you wrote in the text file is the structure you see in Word.
What about special characters?
Standard accented characters and symbols convert cleanly. Text files saved in unusual legacy encodings can produce odd characters, in which case re-save the source as UTF-8 first.
