Unicode Normalizer
Normalize text to one of NFC, NFD, NFKC, or NFKD.
How to use
- Enter text, choose the normalization form, and run.
Capabilities and scope
NFC is the default and a select control exposes all four standard Unicode normalization forms.
How it works
The tool directly calls JavaScript String.normalize(form).
Example
Composed and decomposed forms of é can be standardized with NFC or NFD.
Useful for
- Standardize code-point representation before comparison or storage
Before you use it
- Compatibility forms NFKC/NFKD can change presentation characters to compatibility equivalents, so use care when preserving exact original forms matters.
Frequently asked questions
Are NFC and NFKC the same?
No. NFKC includes compatibility transformations in addition to canonical normalization.
