Does the extracted text preserve paragraph structure from the contract?

Yes. Paragraphs are separated by newlines and tabs are preserved, so numbered clause hierarchies remain readable. Formatting like bold or italics is stripped, but the text order and line breaks are maintained.

Are tracked changes and comments included in the output?

No. Tracked changes and comments are excluded from extraction. Only the accepted, visible document body text is output — which is typically what you need for clause reference.

Can I extract text from multiple contracts at once?

Yes. You can upload multiple DOCX files in one session. Each document produces its own separate TXT file.

What happens if the DOCX has an invalid internal structure?

Files with corrupted or non-standard internal structure may be skipped. Valid DOCX files produced by Microsoft Word or Google Docs export reliably.

Extract Plain Text from Word Contracts for Fast Clause Analysis

Contract lawyers waste time copying clause language out of formatted Word documents when they need to search, compare, or paste text into other systems. This tool strips a DOCX down to pure UTF-8 text in seconds, giving you clean, portable contract language with no formatting noise.

When you need to pull specific indemnification, limitation of liability, or termination language from a stack of agreements, formatted Word files are an obstacle. Bold, italics, tracked changes, and embedded tables all get in the way of plain text search and programmatic comparison. Extracting raw text lets you grep, diff, or paste into contract analysis tools without fighting the document structure.

Deliteful extracts text from the main document body, preserving paragraph breaks and tabs as plain text. Each uploaded DOCX produces one clean TXT file. Formatting, images, headers, footers, and comments are intentionally excluded — because for clause extraction workflows, that is exactly what you want.
