Frequently Asked Questions

What abbreviations does the tool recognize?

The tool recognizes common abbreviations including Mr., Mrs., Ms., Dr., Prof., Inc., Ltd., Jr., Sr., vs., e.g., i.e., and many others. This prevents incorrect line breaks after these abbreviations.

Does this support languages other than English?

Yes! The tool supports CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) punctuation marks such as 。 ! ? and handles various quote styles including「」『』 in addition to standard Western quotation marks.

Is my text data saved or sent anywhere?

No. All text processing happens entirely within your browser. We do not store, transmit, or log any of your input or output text.

Can I undo the line breaks if I make a mistake?

Yes, simply click the "Clear" button to reset the output, or use your browser's undo function (Ctrl+Z / Cmd+Z) to revert changes. The original text is preserved in the input area until you manually clear it.

What types of documents can I format with this tool?

This tool is ideal for formatting essays, reports, subtitles, scripts, presentation slides, social media posts, emails, and any text where clear paragraph separation improves readability.

Does the tool handle bullet points and numbered lists?

The tool preserves existing line breaks, so bullet points and numbered lists remain intact. It only adds new line breaks after sentence-ending punctuation within continuous text blocks.

Can I use this tool for programming code or markup?

While primarily designed for natural language text, the tool can format comments and documentation in code. However, for code formatting, dedicated tools like JSON Formatter or CSS Formatter are recommended.

Is there a limit to how much text I can process?

There is no artificial limit. Since all processing happens in your browser, you can process large texts limited only by your device's memory. Very large texts (megabytes) may cause temporary browser slowdown.
