Which text tool do I need?

If text has odd spacing or hidden characters, start with the Copy-Paste Cleaner. If every line breaks mid-sentence after copying from a PDF, use the PDF Text Line Fixer. For lists with repeats, use the Duplicate Text Remover, then the List Formatter to turn the result into commas, bullets, CSV or JSON.

Checking length before you publish

Once text is clean, the Character Limit Checker shows whether it fits a post, meta description or SMS, and the Word Goal Calculator helps plan longer writing against a deadline.
