Remove characters outside the basic ASCII range from text that needs a restricted character set. Follow the exact input and settings below to reproduce this example. Open Remove Unicode from Text.
Prepare the source text
Open Remove Unicode from Text and choose Write or paste text, or upload a supported UTF-8 text file. The upload opens the editor; it does not run the tool. This example uses the exact source shown in the comparison.
Maximum input and result: 1 MB of UTF-8 text, with a 1,048,576-character input ceiling. Expanding transformations must also fit the result limit.
Use the exact example input
Café — hello 😀

Check how the tool works
This tool has no extra transformation options to set. Keep the source exactly as shown to compare the result.
The converter removes every character outside U+0000 through U+007F. Basic Latin letters, ordinary ASCII punctuation, digits, spaces and line breaks are retained. This is a strict character filter rather than an accent converter.

Apply and inspect the result

Non-Latin writing, emoji and accented letters are removed rather than translated. Use Remove Accents first if you want supported accented letters to keep their base form.
Result overview shows Characters removed. This counts individual Unicode code points outside the ASCII range, so a visible symbol made of several code points can contribute more than one removal.
Result overview distinguishes changed, unchanged and empty results. An unchanged result means the selected operation did not alter the text; an empty result can be the expected outcome of removal or extraction.
