TextClean.ca is web-site dedicated to helping editors. It provides the tools to clean text coming from programs like Microsoft Word before pasting into other programs like WordPress. It gets rid of those pesky characters that ruin your formatting and the overall look of your content.
Originally, this was a tool that was part of a larger content management system (CMS). When the CMS was decommissioned in 2017, many editors reached out to complain that their favourite text cleaning tool had disappeared. Previous users of the old CMS had continued using the text cleaning utility long after they stop using the original content management tools. To keep those editors happy, TextClean.ca was born.
Textclean.ca is a simple interface to remove the annoying extra characters that attached themselves to content created in commercial word processing programs. Try it out for yourself at textclean.ca and make sure you bookmark the site. You will want to use the tools over and over.
