Text Utilities

Text Utilities on Page Utils currently ships URL Encode, HTML Encode, Markdown to HTML, HTML to Markdown, Markdown Preview, Markdown Table Generator, Number to Words, and Email Extractor. Percent-encode query values, escape HTML entities, convert between Markdown and HTML, live-preview Markdown, build a Markdown table, spell a whole number as English words, or pull unique emails from a paste — all run in the tab with no account and no upload. This hub lists only working text tools, so there is no empty word-counter stub or placeholder link.

Questions about text utilities

Which text utilities are live on Page Utils?
Nine tools are live: URL Encode (percent-encode or decode for URLs and query strings), HTML Encode (escape or decode HTML character references), Markdown to HTML (convert common Markdown to HTML for drafts), Markdown to PDF (save Markdown as a print-styled PDF in the browser), HTML to Markdown (convert common HTML tags to Markdown for drafts), Markdown Preview (live sandboxed Markdown preview for drafts), Markdown Table Generator (build a Markdown table with alignment for drafts), Number to Words (spell a whole number as English words for drafts), and Email Extractor (pull unique email addresses from pasted text). All run in your browser. We do not publish /text-utilities/word-counter/ as an empty page. When another text helper ships, it will appear in this list and in the sitemap.
Is there a word counter on Page Utils yet?
Not on this hub today. We do not publish /text-utilities/word-counter/ as an empty page, because a stub URL wastes a visit and looks like a tool that failed to load. URL Encode is live for percent-encoding; a counter or cleaner will appear here only when its widget actually works.
Do you store pasted text?
No. Live utilities run locally in the page. Closing the tab drops the buffer. We do not write pasted copy to localStorage, we do not upload it, and we do not require an account. Hosting logs may record that you opened this hub; they do not contain the paragraph you typed into a tool.
Are these tools only for English?
Browser string APIs work with many languages, including those used in India. URL Encode uses encodeURIComponent / decodeURIComponent, so Devanagari, Tamil, and emoji become percent sequences for typical web use. Behaviour still depends on the specific tool — counting, case changes, and whitespace rules are not identical across scripts.
Why not put every idea on a URL now?
Search engines and humans should not land on 404s. Hubs stay honest about what currently works. A coming-soon dump of word counters and case converters would look busy and fail when you click through. Page Utils adds a path only when the widget runs in the browser.
Is a case or slug converter the same as a word counter?
No. A counter reads text and reports a number back without changing what you pasted. A case or slug converter rewrites the string itself, and a slug converter goes further by stripping punctuation and collapsing spaces, so the text you copy out is not the text you pasted in. URL Encode is percent-encoding for URLs — different again. Read each tool's own page for its exact rule.
Is pasted Hindi or other Indic text handled the same as English?
Browser string APIs can read Hindi and other Indic scripts. On URL Encode, typical web use percent-encodes UTF-16 string code units the same way JavaScript encodeURIComponent does. A word-count tool (when one ships) is different: matras and joiners are separate code points, so a naive character or word count can differ from what a reader would call one visible letter.
Is URL Encode the same as HTML encode?
No. URL Encode turns characters into percent sequences for query strings and path segments (encodeURIComponent-style). HTML Encode turns characters into entities like & or < for markup examples. They solve different problems. Live on this hub: URL Encode, HTML Encode, Markdown to HTML, HTML to Markdown, Markdown Preview, Markdown Table Generator, Number to Words, and Email Extractor — open HTML Encode when you need character references.
