Question 1

What are hard line breaks?

Accepted Answer

Hard line breaks are manual line breaks inserted to fit text within a fixed width, common in emails, PDFs, and plain text files. They break words and sentences mid-line.

Question 2

How does this tool detect paragraph boundaries?

Accepted Answer

The tool treats empty lines (double line breaks) as paragraph separators. Single line breaks within paragraphs are considered hard wraps and are removed.

Question 3

Does it handle bullet points or numbered lists?

Accepted Answer

Yes, lines starting with bullet characters (-, *, •) or numbers (1., 2.) are preserved as separate lines to maintain list formatting.

Question 4

Can I set a custom line width for wrapping?

Accepted Answer

Yes, use the Wrap mode to re-wrap text to a specific column width. This is useful for formatting emails or plain text documents.

Question 5

Will it join words that were split across lines?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the unwrap feature detects hyphenated word breaks (word- at end of line) and rejoins them (word continuation).

Question 6

Is my text sent to a server?

Accepted Answer

No, all processing happens in your browser. Your text never leaves your device.

Question 7

What text sources cause hard line breaks?

Accepted Answer

Common sources include PDFs, emails (plain text), copied text from fixed-width editors, terminal output, and plain text files.

Question 8

Can I undo the changes?

Accepted Answer

Yes, click Reset to restore your original text at any time.
