Frequently Asked Questions

Which text formats work best?
This tool handles text with a consistent structure, such as pipe-separated logs, legacy fixed-width reports from New York financial systems, or simple lists of zip codes.
Will this tool figure out the structure for me?
No. It doesn't guess random prose. You define the split logic—like delimiters or column widths—so the output remains precise and analyzable.
Why use fixed-width mode?
This is essential for older mainframe exports or printed reports where column alignment matters, often seen in government or banking records.
Can I create custom headers?
Yes. If your source text lacks column names, type them into the optional header field to organize your data properly.
Is my text data secure?
Absolutely. The process runs locally in your browser, so your data never leaves your device.

Expert Tips

  • If your log file uses tabs, copy an actual tab character from your text and paste it into the delimiter field—don't just type 'tab'.
  • For mainframe reports, count the character widths carefully using a monospaced font to ensure columns align correctly.
  • Use the 'Skip lines' feature to ignore report headers or date stamps common in exported system printouts.
  • Add a specific header row if you plan to import the CSV into Excel or a database tool like Access.
  • Always check the preview pane before downloading to catch misaligned fields early in the process.
