Hey everyone,

Quick question — have you ever needed to convert rich text to plain text and found yourself stuck copying, pasting, and deleting formatting manually? I’ve been there too, especially when working with content from Word docs, emails, or web pages.

The good news? There are online tools that instantly convert rich text to plain text — no formatting, no hidden code, just clean, raw text.

Here’s why I use them:

• Clean up content before uploading to CMS platforms.
• Strip unnecessary styles from copy-pasted material.
• Get plain content for coding, documentation, or SEO tasks.
• Avoid weird font or spacing issues in emails and forms.
  
  

All you have to do is paste the rich text into a converter, click a button, and copy out clean, unformatted text. Super handy for writers, developers, students, and marketers.

If you’ve got a favorite rich text to plain text converter, I’d love to hear about it. Also open to browser extensions or desktop tools that get the job done fast.
