When you do this, you lose most formatting, as the formatting in TXT is minimal. As Manichean suggested, any HTML based format usually works well, because it preserves formatting. However, if your problem lies in the formatting, sending through TXT will makes those problems disappear and replace the formats with more reasonable Calibre defaults.

As a general rule, however, one wouldn't want to strip formatting, and if you are willing to learn CSS and do detailed editing, one can often fix the problems without stripping out the good stuff.
