Tips for best results

Common problems and fixes

Text appears garbled
The source encoding is not UTF-8 or ASCII. Re-save the TXT as UTF-8 and re-upload.
Long lines wrap awkwardly
Use soft wrapping in your text editor before saving, or split long lines manually.
Tabs are converted to spaces
TXT tabs are preserved as spaces for consistent rendering. For tabular data, use CSV → PDF instead.
