    It might be really obvious, but how do I convert my stuff into plain text? Any help appreciated, thanks.

      without knowing which format you try to convert as “plain text”,
      it is hard to tell what you need to do, or if it is even possible at all.

      Cheers

        The default for saving a New file is Normal text file (**.txt)*.

        Look in Menu -> Save As -> then look at the second line: Save as type. You select in that box from a variety of file formats. Normal text file (* .txt) is in the second line. I like the first choice in that box: All types. It comes in handy when I want to save a file in text format, but I don’t want the .txt extension added automatically.

        Peace be with you and this community!

          When saving, save name[dot], E.g. xxx. and file will be named xxx rather than xxx.txt.
