GOOD TO KNOW
Plain text has no formatting, so StackPDF uses a clear, simple layout.
| IN THE TEXT | IN THE PDF | TIP |
|---|---|---|
| Long lines | Wrapped to the page width | Nothing runs off the edge |
| Blank lines | Kept as paragraph breaks | Use them to separate sections |
| Page break characters | Start a new page | Common in exported logs and reports |
| Accented letters | Kept as written | Other scripts, such as Chinese, need Word to PDF |
For formatted documents, use Word to PDF instead.
