Frequently asked questions

Will it keep paragraph breaks?

You choose. "Remove all line breaks" joins everything into one line; "Remove blank lines only" keeps single line breaks and deletes empty ones, which is what you usually want after copying from a PDF.

Is my text private?

Yes. Everything runs in your browser with JavaScript — nothing you type or paste is uploaded, logged, or sent to a server. You can disconnect from the internet after the page loads and it still works.

Do I need to sign up?

No. There is no account, no email, and no paywall. Open the page and use it.
