Notepad to XML Converter

About This Tool

This tool transforms blocks of plain text into a structured XML document. It splits input into logical records, wraps each record in a configurable item element, and nests them under a root element. The default structure uses root 'notes' and item 'note', but both can be customized to fit existing schemas. The process preserves order and escapes characters that would break XML parsing.
The underlying logic normalizes line endings, identifies non-empty blocks, and builds a well-formed XML string with optional XML declaration. It supports pretty-print formatting for readability or compact output for storage and transmission. Advanced options include choosing root and item element names and deciding whether to emit CDATA for content.
This tool is designed for developers, data engineers, content teams, and automation pipelines that require consistent XML from textual notes, such as CMS imports, archival migrations, or data ingestion tasks.
