How to Split Text Online

Four simple steps to break any text into smaller chunks using CoderDesign's free Text Splitter.

01

Paste or Upload Your Text

Type, paste, or upload a .txt file containing the text you want to split — CSV data, log files, articles, code, or anything else.

02

Choose a Split Mode

Select one of five modes: by delimiter, by character count, by number of lines, by word count, or by regular expression pattern.

03

Configure & Click Split

Set the delimiter, chunk size, or regex pattern. Optionally enable trim or remove-empty options. Then click the Split Text button.

04

Copy or Download Results

Review the resulting chunks, see how many parts were created, and copy to clipboard or download as a .txt file.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Text Splitter breaks any block of text into smaller parts based on the method you choose. You can split by a delimiter (comma, semicolon, pipe, tab, or any custom string), by a fixed character count, by a fixed number of lines, by word count, or by a regular expression pattern. Results are displayed in an output box and can be copied or downloaded.
You can split by any delimiter. Common presets include comma (,), semicolon (;), pipe (|), tab, and newline. You can also type any custom string — for example '::' or ' → ' or even a multi-character sequence. The tool uses your exact delimiter string to split the input.
Yes. Use the 'By Number of Lines' or 'By Word Count' modes to control chunk size. For example, 100 lines split every 20 lines produces 5 chunks. Similarly, a 500-word text split every 50 words produces 10 chunks.
Select the 'By Character Count' mode and enter the number of characters per chunk. The tool slices every N characters, producing uniform-length segments — useful for SMS limits, database fields, or fixed-width blocks.
Yes, the Text Splitter is completely free with no limitations. There are no hidden charges, no premium tiers, and no sign-up required. Split unlimited text as many times as you need.
Absolutely. All processing happens entirely in your browser using JavaScript — nothing is sent to any server. Your text is never stored, logged, or shared. You can verify this by disconnecting from the internet after the page loads.
Yes. For CSV, use the delimiter mode with a comma. For TSV, choose the tab preset. Each cell value becomes its own line. Enable 'Trim results' to strip whitespace from each value automatically.
By default, empty parts are kept so you see exactly where consecutive delimiters produced blanks. Enable 'Remove empty parts' to filter them out before the results are displayed.
