Split Text into Chunks

Split Text into Chunks cuts the entire input into consecutive pieces of a chosen grapheme length.

Try split text into chunks

Paste or type text below. The result updates in your browser.

Example: split text into chunks

Input
abcdef
Illustrative result
abc
def

How to use this tool

  1. Enter the text to divide.
  2. Set Chunk size and run the tool.
  3. Inspect whether spaces or original line breaks landed inside chunks.

How the result is made

The tool segments displayed graphemes, takes groups of the selected size, and puts each group on a new line. With a size of three, “abcdef” becomes “abc” then “def”. The count is clamped between one and one thousand. Spaces and original line breaks count as graphemes inside the sequence.

When to use it

Use it to inspect fixed-length blocks, prepare simple test data, or break a token into manageable pieces. Wrap Text to Width tries to preserve words; this tool ignores word boundaries. Split Text uses a literal delimiter instead of a fixed length.

Details to check

Because line breaks are part of the input sequence, existing lines can be cut inside a chunk and the new output can look irregular. The tool does not measure bytes, so a chunk of three graphemes can occupy more than three UTF-8 bytes. Check downstream size limits separately.

Questions people ask

Does it count bytes?

No. It counts grapheme clusters.

Will it keep words together?

No. It cuts at fixed grapheme counts.

Can it split an emoji?

Grapheme segmentation generally keeps a displayed emoji cluster together in supporting browsers.
