Frequently Asked Questions

How many spaces replace a tab?

You choose; 4 is the default.

Does the Tabs to Spaces store my text?

No. All text processing happens locally in your browser. Your content never reaches any server and is discarded when you close the page.

Can I process very long documents?

Yes, the tool supports text up to 100,000 characters. For larger documents, split them into smaller sections.

Will formatting like line breaks be preserved?

It depends on the tool. Some transformations intentionally modify line breaks while others preserve the original formatting.
