What does the text cleaner remove?

Extra whitespace, duplicate blank lines, Windows-style line endings (\r\n → \n), zero-width characters, smart quotes (converting to straight quotes), non-breaking spaces, and leading/trailing whitespace per line.

Can I remove only specific things?

Yes. Toggle each cleaning operation independently — for example, strip smart quotes without changing line endings.

Is it useful for cleaning up text copied from PDFs or Word docs?

Yes. PDFs and Word often include invisible formatting characters, non-breaking spaces, and inconsistent line endings. The cleaner handles all of these.

Does it have an undo?

Yes. Cmd+Z / Ctrl+Z restores the original input.
