How to Quickly Save TXT Documents as PDF Files in Windows

If you have penned down a great sounding report but made the mistake of typing it in the Microsoft Notepad or any other editor that can save the document in only the plain text format and you want to convert it into the PDF format before sending it off to be printed or shared to other co-workers at work, then there is nothing to worry really. There are more than one way to save your TXT files into PDF format in Windows.

If you are using Windows 10, then it already comes with a virtual PDF printer. Using this virtual PDF printer, you can “print” your TXT documents and they will be saved as PDF documents. This is pretty easy to use feature. All you have to do is open the TXT file in Microsoft Notepad and select FilePrint from the menubar.
