Word Cleaner converts multiple text files to HTML/XHTML/TXT while removing unwanted tags. It includes text/code editors, browser preview, and customizable templates to optimize the output. Supports popular formats like .doc, .docx, .rtf, and .txt.
One of the best features of Word Cleaner is that it allows you to batch convert Word files to HTML / XHTML / TXT, as well as convert rtf and txt files to HTML. You can view and edit text files directly in the program, and the software supports Word 2007 docx files. Additionally, Word Cleaner has command line support and allows one-click conversion from within MS Word.
With the ability to convert one text file to multiple html files (where one page equals one HTML file), you can create your own templates and automate your document conversion and cleaning. The software comes with built-in code editors and browser preview that enable you to detect any errors and fix them in real-time. Moreover, its powerful find and replace feature supports RegEx.
It's worth noting that Microsoft Word files are the most common way clients and users give you information to put on the web. However, the HTML files that are created using the 'save as webpage' feature contain a lot of unnecessary code, which not only increases the file size but also causes incompatibilities with browsers other than Internet Explorer. In the past, web designers and webmasters had to clean out the code by hand, but even things like the 'clean up word html' command in Dreamweaver were not very effective.
As web designers who have spent a lot of time converting client's word files and cleaning them up for use in their websites, we know how cumbersome this process can be. That's why we decided to build a tool ourselves by creating Word Cleaner, a utility designed by web designers to meet the needs of web designers. You can check out the features and examples, and download a free trial version to start experiencing Word Cleaner for yourself.
