Frequently asked questions
What are HTML entities?
HTML entities are codes like & (for &), < (for <), (non-breaking space). The HTML cleaner mode removes both HTML tags and common entities.
What counts as special characters?
"Special characters" mode keeps only letters (A-Z, a-z), numbers (0-9), and spaces. Everything else — punctuation, symbols, emoji — is removed.
Does emoji removal work for all emoji?
Most modern emoji (skin tones, flags, ZWJ sequences) are handled. Some very new or rare emoji may not be caught — check the result if you have unusual characters.
