How to convert sub to text file

Both .sub (subtitles) and .text files are stored in a text file format with ASCII or UTF-8 encoding and as such these can be opened simply with any text editing software. If you want, you can rename the file extension from sub to text, but that's it. No sub to text conversion is actually required.

Understanding SUB and TXT file formats

SUB files are subtitle files used in conjunction with video files to display text on the screen. They contain the timing and text of subtitles, allowing viewers to read along with the dialogue or narration in a video. These files are often used in conjunction with IDX files, which provide additional information about the subtitles, such as language and formatting.

TXT files, on the other hand, are plain text files that contain unformatted text. They are widely used for storing simple text data and can be opened and edited with any text editor. Converting a SUB file to a TXT file involves extracting the subtitle text and saving it in a plain text format.

How to convert SUB to TXT

To convert a SUB file to a TXT file, you need a tool that can read the subtitle data and export it as plain text. Here are the steps to perform the conversion:

  1. Open the SUB file with a subtitle editing software like Subtitle Edit or Aegisub.
  2. Once the file is loaded, navigate to the File → Export menu.
  3. Select the Plain Text or TXT option from the export formats.
  4. Choose the destination folder and save the file.
