ASCII

ASCII is pure text data. An ASCII file contains only characters and simple formatting controls such as paragraph returns and tabs. All of the visual effects added by today's word processing programs such as typefaces, font sizes, colors, line and paragraph spacing, tables and graphics are not available in the ASCII format. 

Many companies need the text from their published documents in the ASCII text format for use in data processing applications, database searches and ASCII-based systems.
