Strip a legacy Word DOC file down to plain TXT text, removing every trace of formatting for scripts, search tools, and text-only systems. What survives is the words themselves: tables flatten into lines, while fonts, images, and page furniture vanish.

Why convert DOC to TXT?
- Index old .doc archives with grep, search appliances, or scripts that cannot parse binary Word files.
- Prepare clean corpora for translation memory, text analysis, or LLM ingestion where markup is noise.
- Guarantee the content stays readable forever - plain text never goes obsolete.
Tip: If accented or non-Latin characters look wrong in the output, the issue is text encoding, not lost data - open the TXT as UTF-8 in your editor before assuming the worst.
