Wrap Text
Wrap Text is part of Toolspire and is ready as soon as this page loads. A word longer than the column is broken hard. “hello world” at width 5 does not need a hard break, because each word is exactly 5.

What you can do here
Spaces are the first choice
hello and world are not sliced, because each fits.
Long words are sliced
A 10-letter word at width 4 becomes three lines, the last one shorter.
Existing newlines are whitespace
They do not force a break beyond the width rule.
The sequence
How to use the Wrap Text
- 1
Set the column
5 is the sample. A readable note is often 72.
- 2
Check hello and world
Two lines, neither longer than 5.
- 3
Unwrap with the other page
Remove line breaks joins them back.
Worth knowing
- Wrap Text on Toolspire: width 5 wraps hello world as hello then world.
- Breaks prefer a space. A word longer than the width is sliced.
- The width must be an integer from 1 to 500.
- Remove line breaks is the page that undoes this and returns one paragraph.
Fit words, then slice what will not fit
The wrapper keeps a line until the next word would pass the column, then starts another line. “hello world” at width 5 puts hello on the first line because it is exactly 5, and world on the next. A word longer than the column cannot be saved by a space, so it is cut every N characters. Existing line breaks are treated as spaces first, so a prewrapped paragraph is rewrapped to the new width.
