Text to DOCX
Build a genuine .docx from a plain text or Markdown file — the same structure Word writes, opening in Word, LibreOffice, Pages and Google Docs. Set the page size, orientation, typeface and size, and let Markdown headings and lists become real formatting. The document is assembled in your browser and never uploaded.
Set as the document default. Readers without the font installed substitute their own.
1 is single spacing, 1.5 is one-and-a-half.
Turn this off to keep every character exactly as written, including the # and ** markers.
How text to docx works
- Add your text fileDrop in a .txt or .md. Furtu reads it as text, strips out the control characters that are not legal in XML, and splits it into blocks on blank lines.
- Set the page and typeA4 or Letter, portrait or landscape, then the typeface, size and line spacing you want as the document default.
- Download the .docxA complete Office package is assembled in your browser and handed back as a file you can open and keep editing.
What you get
Turn a .txt or Markdown file into a real Word document. Everything happens inside this page: the file is read by your browser, transformed in memory and handed straight back to you as a download. There is no upload queue, no waiting for a server, and nothing left behind when you close the tab.
Supported formats
Furtu accepts .txt, .md, .markdown, .text files up to 25 MB each — one file at a time.
- Every file is checked against its real file signature, not just its name, so a renamed or corrupt file is rejected with an explanation instead of failing halfway through.
- Files over the limit are refused up front rather than after a long wait.
Limitations, stated up front
- This creates a new document. It does not open and edit an existing .docx, so existing styles, headers and numbering are not available to reuse.
- Markdown support covers headings, list markers and bold and italic runs. Tables, links, images, footnotes and code blocks are written as the literal text you typed.
- Paragraph alignment, indents, colours and page breaks are not exposed, so the result is deliberately plain — a clean starting point rather than a designed layout.
- A source file with no text at all produces an empty document; Furtu stops and says so instead of handing you a blank file.
Frequently asked questions
Is the .docx a real Word file?
Yes. It is a proper Office Open XML package — content types, relationships, document part and all — built the same way Word builds one, not a renamed text file. It opens in Word, LibreOffice, Pages, Google Docs and WPS, and the document properties carry the original file name as the title.
How are paragraphs decided?
Blank-line-separated blocks become separate paragraphs, and lines inside a block are separated by a line break within that paragraph. That is the same rule Markdown uses, so a Markdown file you have been editing behaves the way you expect when it comes out the other side.
How much Markdown is understood?
Headings (# to ######), bulleted and numbered list markers, and bold and italic runs. That is deliberately the part of Markdown that changes what a word processor does. Anything else — tables, links, images, code fences, block quotes — is carried across as the literal text you typed, so nothing is ever silently thrown away.
Will it look like my source file?
Only if your source file is plain text. There is no way to infer a layout that was never in the file: a .txt has no fonts, no margins and no styles. What you set here — page size, orientation, typeface, size, spacing — is the complete set of choices, and there are no hidden defaults beyond standard 2.5 cm margins.
Is my text uploaded?
No. Reading the text and writing the Word package both happen in this tab, using a small archive library bundled with the page.
