How it works
Paste or drop your HTML
Paste HTML into the box or drop a HTML page (.html). It is read in your browser and shown as it will read.

The document appears beside it, with the text underneath.

Headings, paragraphs, lists and links carry across, and the text stays real, selectable text.

Why it matters
What it reads
The text of the page with its headings, lists, tables, links and pictures. Scripts, menus, forms and styling are left out: what you get is the document, not the website around it. For its pictures, pick the .html and its pictures together, drop the folder or a zip of it, or open the page saved as "Webpage, Single File" (.mhtml).
What you get
Plain UTF-8 text with paragraphs, list bullets and table rows kept as lines.
Nothing uploaded
Your document never leaves this tab: it is read and written by your browser, so private reports, books and emails stay private.
