Which text tool should you use?
Count words, characters and bytes
For a quick overview of document length, use Word Counter to see words, characters and lines. When a field has a strict character limit or you need to know the encoded size of a message, use Character Counter. It also displays counts without spaces and UTF-8 bytes. A character count is not always the same as a byte count: some characters take multiple UTF-8 bytes.
Change capitalization without retyping
Text Case Converter changes pasted text to uppercase, lowercase or title case. It helps clean headings, lists and labels. Check proper nouns and language-specific capitalization afterward: automatic title casing cannot understand every grammatical exception.
Organize lists and remove repetitions
Use Remove Duplicate Lines for lists with repeated entries. Choose whether to ignore letter case or empty lines; the first occurrence of each retained line stays in its original order. For alphabetical ordering, reversed order or a shuffled sequence, open Text Sorter. Sorting and deduplication solve different problems, so choose based on whether original order matters.
Compare changes between two versions
Text Diff Checker compares text line by line and identifies added and removed lines. It is useful for checking drafts, edited lists and configuration snippets. This is a line comparison, not a full grammar checker or a word-by-word document review.
Fill layouts with placeholder text
Lorem Ipsum Generator produces placeholder words, sentences or paragraphs. Use it to test layouts before final copy is ready, then replace it before publishing. For realistic design tests, also check the page with meaningful text of different lengths.
Privacy and practical limits
These tools process text locally in your browser rather than uploading pasted content to ToolsNova servers. Still, handle passwords, personal records and confidential material carefully. Limits and options differ by tool. See our Privacy Policy for information about hosting and optional analytics.
