WRITING NOTE
The Korean character ga is one character but takes 3 bytes in UTF-8. The English letter A is one character and 1 byte. An emoji may contain several code points while appearing as one symbol. This tool shows visible grapheme clusters and UTF-8 bytes separately.
Empty lines may separate paragraphs, and repeated lines may be intentional. Empty or duplicate lines are removed only when you select those options. Cleaned text appears separately so you can compare it with the original.
Application forms and forums may count characters differently, including how they handle spaces, line breaks and emoji. After pasting your cleaned text, check the destination counter and preview before submitting.
Grapheme clusters recognized as whitespace, including spaces, tabs and line breaks, are excluded. Punctuation, numbers and emoji remain. The word count splits on whitespace; it does not identify grammatical words or morphemes.
The browser groups code points into grapheme clusters, which approximate the characters a reader sees. Combining accents and multi-part emoji may form one cluster. Browser versions and destination forms can use different rules.
CRLF and CR line breaks are normalized to LF before analysis and in cleaned output. One LF line break is 1 byte in UTF-8. Saving the text in another application with different line endings can change its final file size.
Selected whitespace cleanup is applied first. Then only the first occurrence of each exactly matching line is kept. Matching is case-sensitive and retained lines stay in order. Whitespace cleanup can make previously different lines identical.
The tool has no function that sends your text to a server or saves it. Your original and results exist only in the open page memory. Save any result you need before closing or refreshing the page.
The limit protects device memory and responsiveness. The input allows 100,000 UTF-16 code units, so text with many emoji may reach the limit before the visible character count reaches 100,000. Split longer documents into smaller sections.
