Normalize Unicode Text

The Normalize Unicode Text tool converts decorative and styled letters or digits into plain ASCII text. Whether you’re dealing with bold, italic, fullwidth, circled characters, or Unicode digits, this tool brings it all back to basic. You can also remove separators like dots, dashes, or whitespace to clean up your data stream for processing.
