Text Wrapper

Wrap text to a fixed character width with a visual column ruler. Choose from common presets (40, 60, 72, 80, 120) or set a custom width. Toggle between hard wrap (inserts newlines) and soft wrap (visual preview).

How to use Text Wrapper

2. Select a width preset (40, 60, 72, 80, 120) or choose Custom and enter your own value.
3. Toggle Hard wrap to insert actual line breaks, or keep it off for visual-only reference.
4. Use the visual ruler to see exact column positions.
5. Copy the result or save as a file.

What is Text Wrapper?

FAQ

What's the difference between hard and soft wrap?

Hard wrap inserts real newline characters at the specified width, permanently changing the text. Soft wrap shows the ruler but leaves the text unchanged — useful for checking if your text fits a target width.

Why are there specific width presets like 72 and 80?

72 characters is the traditional line length for plain-text email and Usenet posts. 80 characters is the standard terminal/console width and common code style guide limit. 40 is good for narrow columns, 60 for Markdown, and 120 for modern wide monitors.

Does it respect word boundaries?

Yes, by default. The tool wraps at word boundaries to keep text readable. Enable 'Break long words' to force strict character-width wrapping when needed.

Is my text uploaded?

No. All wrapping happens in your browser. Your text never leaves your device.
