T2T to POTM Converter
Processing entirely on your device — large files may take a moment.
Extract text and structure from POTM templates like any PPTX. If your files are still in T2T format, this page is the shortcut: txt2tags (T2T) is a minimalist markup that compiles one source into HTML, LaTeX, man, MoinMoin and more — the write-once-publish-anywhere idea a decade before static site generators.
This converter runs entirely in your browser using WebAssembly — your files never leave your device, nothing is uploaded, and there are no watermarks, sign-ups or queues. Drop in several files at once to convert them as a batch.

About the T2T format
txt2tags (T2T) is a minimalist markup that compiles one source file into HTML, LaTeX, man, MoinMoin, Wikipedia and more — the write-once-publish-anywhere idea implemented a decade before static site generators made it fashionable.
T2T installations are rare today, but documents written in it are still around. Converting T2T to Markdown moves that content into every modern tool.
+Strengths
- ✓Tiny learnable syntax
- ✓One source, many outputs by design
!Limitations
- −Tooling is no longer maintained
- −Niche user base
About the POTM format
PPTX is the modern PowerPoint deck: a zip of XML parts describing slides, shapes, text runs and media. That structure is exactly why text can be extracted faithfully without PowerPoint — every word on every slide is in the package, with its slide number.
One honest limit: extraction is about words, not looks. Slide layouts, backgrounds, animations and images do not survive a text export — the output is the content of the deck, not a picture of it.
+Strengths
- ✓Text and slide order preserved exactly
- ✓Opens in PowerPoint, Keynote, WPS, Slides
- ✓Zip+XML structure is machine-friendly
!Limitations
- −Text export loses layout and visuals
- −Charts and tables flatten to text

Frequently asked questions
Is this T2T to POTM converter really free?
Yes — completely free, with no sign-up, no watermark and no daily conversion limits. The site is supported by advertising.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. The conversion runs entirely inside your browser using WebAssembly, so your files never leave your device — that is what makes it instant and private.
Does it work on Windows, Mac, iPhone and Android?
Yes. Anything with a modern browser works: Windows, macOS, Linux, Android and iOS. No software installation is required.
Is there a file size limit for T2T to POTM?
The only limit is your device's memory, since nothing is uploaded. Files up to a few hundred megabytes work fine on a modern desktop browser; very large files simply take a little longer.
Can I convert a password-protected deck?
No — protected decks are encrypted in the package. Remove the protection in the original application first.
Does the conversion include images and backgrounds?
No. This is a text extraction: words on slides survive, layouts, backgrounds, animations and pictures do not. Keep the original deck for the visuals.
