TU Library Text Conversion Service

TextAid uses texts in PDF. Students can use the TU Library Text Conversion Service to convert printed course materials into PDFs. For each title you want converted, fill in this form and hand it in to the information desk at the Library. All the PDFs are available via the closed “Reading Support” database." If you would like to use the conversion service and this database, check for more info tudelft.nl/studenten/horizon.

Important: both the TextAid licences provided by TU Delft and the PDFs in the “Reading Support” database are for personal use only. It is not permitted to share the PDFs with any third party.
