Yes. Text Column Formatter is completely free with no account, no trial and no usage cap. Every feature on this page is available on the first visit.
Does Text Column Formatter upload your text to a server?
No. Text Column Formatter processes your text inside your browser, so it never reaches a DocTools server. That also means the tool keeps working if your connection drops mid-task.
Is there a limit on how much input I can use?
Text Column Formatter handles inputs into the megabytes without trouble; the only real limit is how much your browser tab can hold in memory.
Do I need to install anything to use Text Column Formatter?
No installation is needed. Text Column Formatter runs in Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari, on desktop and on mobile, with no extension or plugin.
Can I use Text Column Formatter on a phone or tablet?
Yes. The Text Column Formatter interface adapts to small screens and supports touch input, though very large jobs are faster on a desktop browser.
What happens to your text when I close the tab?
It is discarded. Text Column Formatter keeps everything in temporary browser memory, so closing the tab removes every trace of the session.
