What document formats can I extract text from?

ToolKnit supports 12+ formats: PDF, DOCX (Word), XLSX (Excel), PPTX (PowerPoint), ODT (LibreOffice), RTF (Rich Text), TXT, CSV, JSON, XML, HTML, and Markdown. All processing happens in your browser — files are never uploaded.

How does the auto-format feature work?

The auto-formatter intelligently merges broken lines into proper paragraphs, removes excessive blank lines, and preserves sentence-ending punctuation. It works especially well for PDF files where text often gets split across lines incorrectly.

Is my document uploaded to a server?

No. All text extraction happens 100% in your browser using JavaScript. Your files never leave your device. This makes it safe for confidential documents, contracts, and private files.

Pro Tips

• Auto-format merges broken lines into proper paragraphs — great for PDFs where text gets split across lines.
• For scanned PDFs (image-only), this tool cannot extract text. You would need an OCR tool for that.
• Excel files are extracted as tab-separated text, making it easy to paste into other spreadsheets.
• Your files are processed 100% in your browser — nothing is uploaded to any server. Safe for confidential documents.
