Writing guides

Practical notes for working with drafts, Unicode and text reports.

Comparing two drafts without losing context

Export both revisions as UTF-8 text. Keep chapter headings and paragraph order consistent. A word processor file must first be exported as TXT; changing its extension does not convert it.

Why identical-looking characters can differ

The letter é can be a single code point or an e followed by a combining acute accent. They can look identical while using different bytes. A plain text comparison may therefore report a changed line even though the glyph looks the same.

Cleaning whitespace while protecting structure

Line trimming removes leading and trailing whitespace. Space cleanup collapses runs of ordinary spaces and tabs and changes common non-breaking spaces into ordinary spaces. Use only the option that solves the problem you can see.

Word counts, characters and emoji explained

Word count uses language-aware segmentation. Unicode code points measure encoded characters, while grapheme clusters approximate user-perceived characters. An emoji formed with joiners can be one visible cluster and several code points.

A repeatable workflow for batch text reports

Use meaningful filenames and export to UTF-8. Select up to ten supported files within the total size limit. A filename becomes a report label, so remove personal information from it if the report will be shared.

Preparing UTF-8 files and managing local results

These tools accept plain text, not DOCX, PDF, images or compressed archives. Export from your writing application to UTF-8 TXT. A CSV or Markdown file is treated as text, not parsed into a table or rendered as a document.
