Frequently Asked Questions

Is converting ODT to TXT free?+
Converting ODT to TXT requires the Filoshi desktop app, which is a one-time $14.90 purchase. This gives you unlimited conversions across 3,332+ format pairs with no subscription or per-file fees.
Does converting ODT to TXT lose quality?+
It depends on the formats involved. If both ODT and TXT use lossless compression, no quality is lost. If the conversion involves a lossy format, some quality reduction may occur, but Filoshi uses optimized settings to keep quality loss minimal. The conversion runs entirely on your machine, so there are no server-side compression artifacts.
Can I convert ODT to TXT without uploading my file?+
Absolutely. Filoshi processes everything locally on your computer. Your ODT files are never uploaded to any server. The desktop app bundles all conversion engines and works completely offline.
How long does it take to convert ODT to TXT?+
Most conversions complete in seconds. Larger files (like high-resolution video) may take a bit longer depending on your computer's hardware. Since Filoshi runs locally, there is no upload or download wait time, which is significantly faster than online converters.
Can I batch convert multiple ODT files to TXT?+
Yes, the Filoshi desktop app supports batch conversion. You can drop an entire folder of ODT files, select TXT as the output format, and convert them all at once. Each file gets its own progress bar.
