FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers to common questions about the Text Wrap Formatter.

What does the Text Wrap Formatter do?

It wraps text to a fixed line width, or unwraps already-wrapped text back into flowing paragraphs, depending on which button you click.

Is the Text Wrap Formatter free to use?

Yes. It's free, with no sign-up, no watermark and no limit on how many times you use it.

Is my text safe when I use this tool?

Yes. Your text is processed entirely on your own device — nothing is sent to a server.

Does wrapping ever cut a word in half?

No. Wrapping always breaks at word boundaries, so words are never split across two lines.

What does "Unwrap (join paragraphs)" do?

It joins lines that were wrapped as part of the same paragraph back into a single line, while keeping blank lines as paragraph breaks.

Can I choose the exact wrap width?

Yes. Set "Wrap width (characters)" to anywhere from 10 to 300 characters before clicking Wrap.

Will paragraph breaks be preserved when I wrap or unwrap?

Yes. Blank lines separating paragraphs are kept as-is, so the overall document structure stays intact.

Does the Text Wrap Formatter have any limitations?

It's built for everyday plain text; text with unusual formatting like tables or code blocks may not wrap or unwrap the way you'd expect.
