By proceeding, you confirm you own the rights to the files you upload and agree to our Terms of Use.
Simply upload your TEXT files and click the convert button. You can also batch convert TEXT to EPUB format.
We use both open source and custom software to make sure our conversions are of the highest quality. In most cases, you can fine-tune conversion parameters using “Advanced Settings” (optional, look for the icon).
Our TEXT to EPUB Converter is free and works on any web browser. We guarantee file security and privacy. Files are protected with 256-bit SSL encryption and automatically deleted after 8 hours.
A TEXT file is an ordinary plain-text document, the same thing as a .txt file — unformatted characters with no styling, images, or layout attached. Everything the file contains is readable as-is, which is why plain text is used for notes, logs, configuration files, source code, and data exports. The only piece of hidden information is the character encoding, typically UTF-8, which tells software how to turn the stored bytes back into letters.
Any text editor will do. Notepad on Windows, TextEdit on macOS, and gedit on Linux all open the file instantly, and so does every web browser.
If the document is very large or contains code, Notepad++ or Visual Studio Code handle it far more comfortably and let you switch encodings when characters display incorrectly. Word processors such as Microsoft Word and LibreOffice Writer can import the text if you want to add formatting. You can also convert the file with our TXT to PDF tool.

Electronic Publication (EPUB) is the open standard for e-books and the format used by almost every retailer except Amazon. An EPUB is really a ZIP package of HTML, CSS, images, and fonts, which means the text reflows to fit whatever screen it is read on. Readers can change the font, size, and margins freely, and the same file works on phones, tablets, e-readers, and computers.
On Apple devices, EPUB opens directly in Apple Books. On Windows and Android, Calibre is the standard choice and doubles as a library manager and converter.
Other good readers are Adobe Digital Editions, which handles DRM-protected library loans, plus Thorium Reader, Google Play Books, and Kobo. Amazon Kindle devices now accept EPUB through Send to Kindle, but for older Kindles convert the file first with our EPUB to MOBI tool.
