Frequently Asked Questions About Clean Slate Text Stripper
What are tracking links?
Tracking links are URLs that contain tracking parameters like utm_source, utm_medium, utm_campaign, fbclid, gclid, and other query string parameters used to track clicks. Our tool strips these parameters from any URLs found in your text.
Does this remove all HTML formatting?
Yes. The tool removes all HTML tags including <div>, <span>, <p>, <a>, <img>, and any other markup. The text content between tags is preserved while all tag syntax is removed.
When would I use this?
Whenever you copy text from a web page (which often includes hidden HTML), an email (which may include rich formatting and tracking links), a Word document (with formatting artifacts), or a PDF — and you just want the plain, clean text.
