From text files to shareable PDFs

Plain text files are universal — every system, every era of computing, can read them. But sharing them isn't always clean: email clients mangle line breaks, web browsers strip whitespace, mobile devices wrap unpredictably. Converting text to PDF produces a stable, shareable document that looks the same everywhere.

The main decision is font choice. Proportional fonts (regular text fonts like Inter or Arial) read naturally for prose — emails, essays, notes. Monospace fonts (like JetBrains Mono) align columns of text — code, configuration files, tab-separated data. Pick the font that matches your content's nature; the wrong choice makes code look like prose (hard to read) or prose look like code (ugly and wide).

Line breaks are the other consideration. The PDF preserves your text file's original line breaks. For prose that should reflow to fit the page width, join the broken lines into paragraphs in your text editor first — the PDF will then reflow naturally. For code or pre-formatted content, keep the line breaks as-is; the PDF will preserve them exactly.
