• Use Case: Ideal for business professionals, legal teams, and students who need to edit reports, contracts, or academic papers. The DOCX format makes the extracted text easy to revise and format.

2. Plain Text (TXT):

• Why TXT?: Plain text (TXT) is perfect for those who need a simple, unformatted version of the text. This lightweight format strips away all formatting, leaving only the raw text, which can be imported into any text editor or software.
• Use Case: Researchers, developers, and writers will appreciate the simplicity of TXT files when they only need the core text without any formatting. It's universally compatible and lightweight.

3. JSON:

• Why JSON?: For developers or businesses that need structured data, JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is the ideal format. By exporting text in JSON, you maintain the structure of the extracted data, making it easy to integrate into applications, databases, or workflows.
• Use Case: JSON is perfect for developers and businesses working with large-scale data extraction or automation workflows. JSON format allows for easy integration with APIs, data processing tools, or machine learning models.
