How does the EM Dash Remover work?
The EM Dash Remover automatically scans your document and strips out all EM dashes (—) and EN dashes (–), or replaces them with standard hyphens (-). This is useful for formatting text for systems that do not support special typography characters.
Typography Standardization
Many word processors like Microsoft Word automatically convert double hyphens into long EM dashes. While this looks nice in print, it often breaks when pasted into older databases, coding environments, or plain text systems.
