Frequently asked questions

Are line breaks kept?

Yes. Only spaces and tabs within lines are collapsed; to tidy blank lines use Normalize Line Breaks or Remove Blank Lines.

Is my text uploaded anywhere?

No. The tool runs in your browser and the text never leaves your device, so you can paste confidential drafts, contracts or customer data.
