Frequently Asked Questions

How do I remove punctuation from text?

Paste the text into the input field and choose a removal mode. The tool removes punctuation marks and shows the cleaned result.

Is it better to remove punctuation or replace it with spaces?

For regular text, replacing punctuation with spaces is often safer so words do not stick together. Full removal is convenient for short strings, technical processing, or special scenarios.

Can some symbols be kept?

Yes. In the "Keep symbols" field you can specify exceptions, such as @, period, underscore, hyphen, or slash.

What happens to hyphens inside words?

By default, hyphens inside words can be preserved so words like "e-commerce", "user-friendly", or "state-of-the-art" are not broken.

Can decimal points and commas in numbers be preserved?

Yes. A setting can preserve separators inside numbers, such as 3.14 or 1,5, so numeric values are not distorted.

Is the tool suitable for NLP and frequency analysis?

Yes. The service helps prepare text for NLP, tokenization, frequency analysis, spreadsheets, and import, but it does not replace a full NLP pipeline.

Does the tool remove emoji and HTML tags?

No. This service works with punctuation. For emoji and HTML tags, use the separate Remove Emoji and Strip HTML Tags tools.

Is my data sent to the server?

No. Text is processed locally in your browser and is not sent to the server.

Do I need to register?

No. The tool works immediately and does not require registration.
