Frequently Asked Questions
How does the tool handle punctuation marks like commas and periods?
The logic detects word boundaries and applies quotes only to the alphanumeric characters. Punctuation marks at the end of words remain outside the quotes to preserve the original sentence structure.
Will the original line breaks in my text be preserved?
Yes. The tool maintains all original formatting, including single line breaks, paragraph spacing, and indentation. Only the individual words are wrapped.
What types of quote marks are available for selection?
You can choose from standard double ("), single ('), curly double (“”), curly single (‘’), and angle quotes (« ») to meet specific regional or technical documentation standards.
Can I process large blocks of text simultaneously?
The tool is designed to handle high-volume text inputs efficiently, making it suitable for processing thousands of words at once for technical or linguistic analysis.
