Usage statistics

We count page views and operations. A random cookie identifies a browser profile; after sign-in its activity is linked to your account. Your last IP and its observation date are visible only to the site owner and kept for up to 90 days. Daily counts are kept for 90 days, and inactive profiles are removed after 90 days. Formats, outcomes, error codes, and size and time ranges are counted separately. File names, contents and metadata stay on your device. Turning this off deletes the current browser profile.

Frequently asked questions

Why convert FB2 to TXT?

Plain text opens in any editor on any device and is easy to search, analyze or load into apps that don't understand FB2.

What goes into the TXT?

Title, authors, description, chapter headings, paragraphs, epigraphs, poems and footnotes. Images and formatting don't carry over to plain text.

Which encoding is the file in?

UTF-8. The original book can use any encoding — it's detected automatically.

Do .fb2.zip files work?

Yes. FB2 books are often shared as ZIP archives — the converter finds the file inside. The encoding is detected automatically too, including windows-1251 used by older books.

Can I convert several books?

Yes, up to 100 files at once. Download them one by one or all together in a single ZIP file.

Is it safe?

Yes. Only the converter itself is loaded from the site; your book is processed in your browser and never sent to a server.
