How to use Hard Wrap Text

Paste plain text with blank lines between paragraphs.
Choose the width and whether long words may split.
Wrap the text and inspect the paragraph and word boundaries.

Example: Hard Wrap Text

Hard Wrap Text: Wrapped paragraphs to 40 code points per line, leaving longer words intact. Line endings were normalized to LF; repeated spaces within paragraphs were reduced to one space and blank lines were kept.

You add

Text: Hard wrapping keeps each paragraph readable while respecting the selected line width. Maximum line width: 40 Split words longer than the width: off

You get

Wrapped paragraphs to 40 code points per line, leaving longer words intact. Line endings were normalized to LF; repeated spaces within paragraphs were reduced to one space and blank lines were kept. Hard wrapping keeps each paragraph readable while respecting the selected line width.

Options

Line width: The width counts Unicode code points rather than visual terminal cells or whole grapheme clusters.
Long words: Leave splitting off to preserve an uninterrupted long word, even when that line exceeds the chosen width.

Supported inputs and limits

Up to 200,000 characters; width 10–200 code points; output cap 1,000,000 characters. Paragraph breaks remain, while existing single line breaks within a paragraph may be joined. A long word exceeds the selected width when splitting is off. Code points are not grapheme clusters or terminal display cells, so combining characters, emoji and wide letters can look different. Output line-ending behavior is stated in the result.

Hard wrapping changes the text itself

The result contains inserted line breaks, unlike visual wrapping in an editor. Existing single line breaks within a paragraph may be joined, repeated spaces are reduced and output uses LF endings. Inspect structured text carefully before replacing a version whose original line boundaries mattered.

Questions about Hard Wrap Text

Is this the same as my editor wrapping a line?

An editor can wrap visually without changing the file. This tool inserts actual line breaks in the returned text.

What happens to a long URL?

With splitting off, a word or URL longer than the width remains whole. Splitting on can insert breaks inside it, which may stop it working as a link.

Will emoji occupy one column?

Widths count Unicode code points. A visible emoji can contain several code points or occupy more than one display cell.
