Seamless Online Text Extraction Utility
Budget: ₹750 – ₹1,250 INR
I’m looking for a simple, reliable way to grab text from online sources and drop it straight into a .txt file while keeping the original layout readable. My material may arrive as PDFs, screenshots, or full web pages, so the extractor needs to cope with mixed inputs without choking on fonts, line breaks, or basic tables.
Even though the final output is plain text, I still want the document’s structure preserved: headings should stay on their own lines, paragraph spacing must remain clear, and any list or table should still look like one when opened in a standard text editor.
What I expect from you:
• A script, small app, or web-based tool that accepts a URL or local file, processes it automatically, and saves the result as a .txt file.
• Consistent handling of Unicode characters and right-to-left text.
• Clean, well-commented code plus brief instructions so I can run it myself on Windows or in a browser.
• A quick test run with two sample files (one PDF, one web page) to show the formatting has been carried over correctly.
That’s the whole job—accuracy and ease of use matter more than fancy UI. If you’ve built something similar or can turn this around quickly, let’s talk.
