Ultimate Guide to Text Wrapping

Text wrapping is the process of breaking a section of text into lines so that it fits within the available width of a page, window, or column. This is essential for readability and layout design.

Common Use Cases

  • Email Formatting: Standard email etiquette often suggests wrapping text at 72 or 80 characters to ensure it displays correctly on all clients.
  • Coding: Many style guides recommend wrapping code and comments at 80, 100, or 120 characters to keep files readable in split-screen views.
  • Terminal Output: Command-line interfaces have fixed widths, and wrapping text ensures output doesn't get cut off or become unreadable.
  • Blog Posts: Narrow text columns are generally easier to read than wide blocks of text spanning the full screen width.

Word Wrap vs. Character Wrap

Word Wrap (default in this tool) breaks lines at spaces between words, keeping whole words intact. Character Wrap (or "Cut Long Words") forces a break exactly at the width limit, even if it splits a word in the middle. This is useful for fixed-width data or avoiding overflow issues.
