Why Text Sanitization Matters
Copying text from PDFs, Word documents, or older websites often drags along invisible formatting, irregular line breaks, and messy HTML tags. Pasting this directly into a CMS can completely break your webpage's layout and typography.
Optimal Text Formatting
A text cleaner acts as a filter, stripping away all hidden styles and irregular whitespace, leaving you with pure, predictable plain text. Our tool does this locally in your browser to guarantee data privacy.
Quick rules:
- Always strip HTML before pasting into a CMS. Unless you are intentionally copying layout structures, paste as plain text to let your global CSS handle the styling.
- Fix PDF line breaks. PDFs often hard-code line breaks at the end of visual lines. A cleaner can merge these broken sentences back into cohesive paragraphs.
- Normalize spacing. Remove double spaces and weird tab indents to maintain a professional typographical standard.
