Make your text perfect with the Typograf plugin for ONLYOFFICE

Great news!

Now you can make your text ready for publishing in a few minutes using Typograf. Read this post and learn how to fix barely visible flaws in the drafts automatically.

What is Typograf

The plugin performs dozens of useful text correcting tasks automatically. For your convenience they are all grouped by text elements you need to correct.

Punctuation. Make your text compliant with the punctuation rules of the chosen language — add necessary periods, commas, exclamations marks, etc. or remove doubled ones.

Hanging punctuation. Extend punctuation marks into the outside of the margins.

Dash and hyphen. Automatically insert dashes, hyphens, and switch between them.

Non-breaking space. Add hard space before or after particular parts of the text, e.g. between number and word.

Space and line ending. Apply spaces where necessary and remove excessive ones.

HTML. Place links, paragraphs, remove HTML tags or escape HTML code in a couple of clicks.

Date. Write dates in compliance with a chosen locale and convert date formats.

Money. Change currency codes to symbols (e.g. USD -> $) and place them before or after the number.

Numbers and mathematical expressions. Easily insert mathematical signs (e.g. != makes the Not Equal To sign), change formats of fractions and much more.

Symbols and signs. No need to look for the Copyright or Trademark sign anymore — just type in (c) or ™ and let Typograf perform.

This list doesn‘t cover the whole spectrum of the Typograf plugin‘s features. Some of them may depend on the language you work with.
