Shortens every line to the maximum length you set. If a line is longer, it is cut and the optional suffix (e.g. "…") is appended. The suffix length counts towards the maximum. Runs entirely in your browser.
Truncate Text allows you to shorten strings to a specific character limit without losing readability. Whether you need to trim lines for a UI preview or create concise meta descriptions, this free online line trimmer tool handles it instantly. Turn on word-boundary mode to ensure your text never ends mid-syllable, providing a professional look for snippets and summaries.
This character limit tool works on whole text or line-by-line, which is handy when building table cells or formatting social media posts. Unicode-safe counting means emoji and accented characters are treated as single units, preventing broken characters. You can also define a custom ellipsis suffix like "[...]" or "read more" to be appended within your budget.
Word-aware mode walks back to the previous space so the truncated string never ends mid-word. A hard cut snips at the exact character index, even if that lands in the middle of a word - useful when output must fit a strict byte budget.
Yes. The tool counts Unicode code points, so a single emoji or an accented letter like é is one character. Surrogate pairs are kept intact rather than split in half.
Yes - set any suffix (…, …more, […], or arbitrary text). The suffix length is included in the target length so the final string never exceeds the limit you set.
No. Truncation runs entirely in your browser via JavaScript string operations. Nothing you paste leaves the page.
Whether you are creating social media previews or cleaning up data for a spreadsheet, this free online truncate text tool provides clean, accurate results.
