About Text Tidy-Up
You paste out of a PDF and every line breaks in the wrong place, words are split with hyphens, and there are characters you cannot see but every form can. This puts it right and tells you exactly what it changed.
What it does
- Rejoins lines the PDF broke, and leaves real paragraphs alone
- Puts back together words split across a line with a hyphen
- Strips non-breaking spaces, zero-width joiners and soft hyphens
- Every fix counted separately, so you are not trusting it blindly
- Untick any fix you want left alone
How to use it
- Paste the mess in Out of the PDF, the email, wherever it came from.
- Choose the fixes All the usual ones are on. Untick what you do not want.
- Copy the clean version Or save it as a .txt file.
Questions
Is this really free?
Yes, the whole tool. There is no trial, no cut-down version, no account and no email address to hand over. You are using the same file a paying customer would get.
Do I need to install anything?
No. It is one file that runs in the browser you are reading this in. There is nothing to download unless you want to keep a copy.
Does it work offline?
Yes. Save the page and it keeps working with the wi-fi switched off, because there is no server involved at any point.
Where does what I type go?
Nowhere. Nothing you type is uploaded, stored or sent anywhere. There is no network call in this file to make one, which is why it still works offline.
