What is a HTML file?

HTML is the language of web pages: text marked up with tags for headings, paragraphs, links, tables and images, styled with CSS and laid out by the browser at display time. An HTML file has no fixed page size and reflows to fit the window.

Strengths

  • Reflows to any screen size
  • Text is fully searchable, selectable and accessible
  • Opens in any browser; easy to edit

Limitations

  • Looks different in different browsers and window sizes
  • Images and styles are often separate files that must travel with it
  • Not suitable as a fixed, signed or printable document

Typical uses: Web pages and email templates; Documentation and help content; Intermediate format for text extraction.

What is a Text (TXT) file?

A plain text file contains characters and line breaks and nothing else: no fonts, sizes, colours, images or layout. It is the most portable format there is and the easiest to process with other software.

Strengths

  • Opens anywhere, forever
  • Tiny files; perfect for search, scripting and version control
  • No formatting to go wrong

Limitations

  • No formatting at all: headings, bold, tables and images are lost
  • Character encoding (UTF-8 versus others) can garble accented text
  • Line breaks differ between Windows and Unix

Typical uses: Extracting the words from a document for search or analysis; Notes, logs and configuration; Feeding text into other programs.

What changes when you convert HTML to Text (TXT)

Tags are removed and the visible text is kept, with line breaks where block elements ended. Links, images and styling are lost.
