Frequently asked questions
How do I convert plain text to HTML?
Paste your text into the box above and keep the default options on. Your text is converted instantly, with paragraphs wrapped in p tags and line breaks turned into br tags.
Should I escape HTML entities?
Yes, in most cases. Characters like & and < have special meaning in HTML, and escaping them stops the browser from misreading your content or breaking your page layout.
What is the difference between p tags and br tags?
Paragraph tags wrap a whole block of text as one unit, while br tags force a line break inside a paragraph. This tool uses p tags for blank line separated blocks and br tags for single line breaks, matching how HTML is normally written.
Can I use this for email templates?
Yes. The generated code is simple inline markup that works well in email HTML and in most content management systems.
Is this tool free?
Yes, it is free with no signup and no limits.
Is my text sent to a server?
No. The conversion runs in your browser with JavaScript, so your text never leaves your device.
