About this conversion

Quality and tradeoffs
Output uses a default monospaced or sans-serif font with reasonable line wrapping and standard A4/letter pages. Long lines wrap automatically. Special characters are preserved. There's no syntax highlighting — for code with colours, render it through HTML first.
Frequently asked questions
What font is used in the PDF?
A clean default sans-serif at a body size readable on screen and in print. Code-style monospace isn't applied — for code listings with formatting, convert via HTML first.
How are line breaks handled?
Hard line breaks in the source TXT are preserved. Long lines wrap at the page margin. Paragraphs are separated by blank lines, just like in the source.
Can I add a title or page numbers?
The basic conversion produces a clean, untitled PDF. For more layout control (titles, page numbers, headers), convert to HTML first and style with CSS, then export to PDF.
