        "content": "I couldn\u2019t find any documentation that describes a specific **JAWS + Leasey** shortcut to *change Word files from HTML format to TEXT format*. It looks like this is not a built-in Leasey or JAWS feature in the public documentation\u2014so there is no single hotkey for \"convert HTML Word file to plain text\" in the standard behavior.\n\nHowever, I found some information about what Leasey *does* support that may help you work around this, or accomplish something similar:\n\n---\n\n### What Leasey Does Offer\n\n- **HTML Assistant:** Leasey has an \u201cHTML Assistant\u201d tool, invoked by pressing **Leasey Key + Control + Windows key + H**. This helps with working in HTML environments, though it doesn\u2019t directly convert Word format HTML files to plain text. ([hartgen.org](https://www.hartgen.org/leaseykeystrokes?utm_source=openai))  \n- **LeaseySelect:** You can select text with Leasey using certain keys (start and end selection). After selecting, you could copy the content and then paste it into a new plain text document. For example:\n  1. `Leasey Key + Comma` begins selection. ([hartgenconsultancy.com](https://hartgenconsultancy.com/LeaseyHelp/LeaseySelect.html?utm_source=openai))  \n  2. Move to where you want to end selection.  \n  3. `Leasey Key + Full-Stop/Period` to end selection. ([hartgenconsultancy.com](https://hartgenconsultancy.com/LeaseyHelp/LeaseySelect.html?utm_source=openai))  \n- **Standard Word features (outside Leasey) that help with saving or exporting:**\n  - Open the file in **Microsoft Word** (even if it\u2019s HTML format).\n  - Use **Save As** (`File \u2192 Save As`) and choose **Plain Text (.txt)** as the file format.\n\n---\n\n### Suggested Workaround\n\nSince there\u2019s no known single shortcut built into JAWS + Leasey to *automatically convert HTML format Word docs into plain text*, here\u2019s a suggested step-by-step method using available tools:\n\n1. Open your HTML file in Microsoft Word.\n2. Use **LeaseySelect** to select all the content:\n   - `Leasey Key + Comma` \u2192 begin selection. ([hartgenconsultancy.com](https://hartgenconsultancy.com/LeaseyHelp/LeaseySelect.html?utm_source=openai))  \n   - `Ctrl + A` (or move via arrows and Leasey select end) \u2192 select all.  \n   - `Leasey Key + Full-Stop/Period` \u2192 end selection. ([hartgenconsultancy.com](https://hartgenconsultancy.com/LeaseyHelp/LeaseySelect.html?utm_source=openai))  \n3. Copy the selection with `Ctrl + C`.\n4. Open Notepad or a plain-text editor.\n5. Paste with `Ctrl + V`.\n6. Save your file as `.txt`.\n\n---\n\nIf you like, I can check whether newer versions of Leasey (or perhaps in beta) **do** include a one-key conversion for this. Would you prefer I look into that?"
