What is Clipboard Copier?

The Clipboard Copier lets you format and copy text, code, or content to your clipboard with one click. It's free, and your content never leaves your device, so it pastes exactly the way you set it up.

The tool keeps separate buffers for plain text, rich text/HTML, Markdown, JSON, and code, so you can switch tabs without losing what's in another format. JSON is validated before copying, the rich text tab supports bold, italic and lists, and the plain tab adds one-click case conversion and whitespace trimming. The five most recent copies stay in the session history; up to ten you pin are saved on this device for next time. Drag a .txt, .md, .json, .html or .csv file onto the textarea to load its contents.

How to use

1. Enter or paste the text you want to format and copy
2. Choose formatting options if needed
3. Click copy to save the formatted text to your clipboard

When to use

• Pasting clean code into a chat or doc without picking up stray formatting from a wiki page.
• Validating a JSON payload before pasting it into a config file or API tester.
• Keeping a Markdown draft and a plain-text fallback ready for two channels at once.

Result

Paste a code snippet, clean up the formatting, and copy it ready for your documentation.

FAQ

Why does pasting HTML into Gmail keep my bold and links?

The rich text tab writes both an HTML and a plain text representation onto the clipboard. Apps that understand rich text (Gmail, Docs, Notion) pick the HTML and keep the formatting; terminal and plain text fields fall back to the unformatted version.

What happens if my JSON has a typo?

The Copy button refuses the paste and shows the parser error so you can fix the syntax first. This stops a broken payload from sneaking into a config file or API call where it would only fail later.

Is my content sent anywhere or logged?

Nothing leaves your device. Copies live in your system clipboard, and both History and Pinned Snippets are kept in this device's localStorage. Clear either panel with its Clear button whenever you want, or unpin items one at a time. The page never sends anything to a server.

Why does pasting code into a chat sometimes lose indentation?

Some chat apps strip whitespace when they receive plain text. Wrap the snippet in a Markdown code block (three backticks before and after) before copying, and the receiving app will treat it as a code block and keep the spacing.

Can I re-copy something I copied a few minutes ago?

Yes. The History panel now keeps your five most recent copies in this device's localStorage, so they survive a page refresh. For snippets you want around longer, hit Pin on a copy or on a history row — Pinned Snippets holds up to ten items. Use the load icon on a pinned row to drop one back into the editor.
