if you mean simple conversion like you know for example there is a text file and you change it to pdf but it wont work cause the formats are different but if you use the xml code i mean like we write html in text editor.........

if you want this type of simple conversion..you can simply change the extension you know like book.html to book.pdf.......if the extension is not shown you need a little setting to make....go to folder options and unselect the option hide extentions for known file types........

if thats not what you want try to be more specific...........

if your text file contains xml, just load it with something like XDocument.Load, for example: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/670563/linq-to-read-xml.
If your file contains something which is not xml, you should parse the text and build xml from it. In this case you should edit your question and give more details.
