Frequently Asked Questions
How do I add numbers to each line?
Paste your lines into the box above. Every non-empty line gets a number in the form "1. ", "2. " and so on. Copy the result with one click.
What happens to blank lines?
Blank lines are removed so the numbers run in sequence without gaps.
Will the numbers stay when I paste into WhatsApp or email?
Yes. The numbers are plain text, not automatic list formatting, so they appear the same in WhatsApp, email, social media and any text box.
Can I use bullet points instead?
Yes. Use the Bullet Points Converter to put a bullet in front of each line instead of a number.
