❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Does Text Cleaner save my data? A: No. The app is built entirely with client-side JavaScript. This means all processing happens on your computer. Once you refresh or close the tab, your text is gone forever.
Q: Can it fix “PDF artifacts” like hyphenated words at the end of lines? A: If you select “Remove Line Breaks,” it will bring those lines together. While it doesn’t automatically fix hyphens within words yet, it removes the broken layout common in PDF-to-Text copying.
Q: Will it remove my formatting (Bold, Italics)? A: Yes. Since this is a “Plain Text” cleaner, it strips away rich text formatting. This is intentional, as it provides you with a “blank slate” for pasting into other programs.
Q: Is there a limit to how much text I can paste? A: There is no hard limit set by the app. It can handle several thousand words instantly. For extremely large books or datasets (5MB+), your browser might experience a slight delay during the regex processing.
Q: Can I use this on my phone? A: Absolutely. The app is designed with a responsive “Glassmorphism” layout that adjusts to mobile screens and tablets.
