Copy Clean: Perfect Text, Every Time You Copy.
Stop wasting time manually fixing messy formatting. Copy Clean allows you to capture selected text as clean, polished, and ready-to-paste plain text in a single click—automatically fixing spaces, line breaks, and punctuation.

This extension streamlines your workflow by acting as a smart filter between the web and your documents, ensuring your notes and messages always look professional.

With Copy Clean, you can:
✨ Strip Messy Formatting: Instantly remove hidden HTML, weird fonts, and unwanted styling to get pure plain text.

🧹 Auto-Fix Layouts: Automatically remove double spaces, fix broken line wraps from PDFs or narrow columns, and normalize "curly" quotes and dashes.

🔗 Generate Markdown & Links: Optionally wrap your selection in Markdown blockquotes or convert a list of URLs into a clean, structured link list.

⚡ One-Click Efficiency: Clean your text instantly via the context menu or a quick shortcut—no need to paste into a "middle-man" text editor first.

🔒 Private & Permission-Light: Everything runs locally in your browser. Copy Clean only acts when you trigger it and requires no broad host permissions to monitor your browsing.

Perfect for:
Researchers & Students: Clean up text copied from PDFs or academic journals for cleaner citations.

Content Creators & Writers: Move quotes from the web to your CMS without carrying over messy source code.

Developers: Quickly normalize data or clean up snippets before pasting them into your IDE.

Administrative Pros: Ensure emails and reports stay consistent by stripping source formatting instantly.

Stop fighting with formatting. Use Copy Clean to grab exactly what you need, exactly how you want it.
