FAQ
What does a text cleaner do?
It makes readable text easier to use by cleaning common spacing, blank-line and copied-formatting problems.
When should I use a more specific tool?
Use a specialist tool when the source matters: AI output, OCR scans, PDF line wrapping, invisible Unicode or rich formatting from another app.
Is this different from Text Normalizer?
