Prepare the input
Check each quotation against its authoritative source and put one complete quotation on each physical line. Do not combine different speakers with one shared attribution.
Wrap verified quotations consistently
Format one quotation per line with curly quotation marks, straight ASCII marks, or Markdown blockquote markers and an optional shared attribution. The operation changes wrappers only; it does not verify wording, rights, source, attribution, punctuation style, nested quotation levels, or whether the material should be quoted.
Counting and transformations run locally. Nirmion does not send the text in this workspace to an API.
Product guide
Check each quotation against its authoritative source and put one complete quotation on each physical line. Do not combine different speakers with one shared attribution.
Curly and straight modes wrap each line; blockquote mode adds a Markdown greater-than marker. A supplied attribution follows each output row after a dash.
Apply nested-quote, punctuation, language, editorial, citation, and rich-text block styling in the final publishing system.
How it works
Blank lines are removed, surrounding whitespace is trimmed, and existing outer double quotation marks are stripped from each remaining line. The selected curly, straight, or Markdown block wrapper is then applied, followed by the exact optional attribution. Internal text is not searched or rewritten. Source is capped at 100,000 characters and output at one million; no source lookup, plagiarism check, rights check, or author verification occurs. The operation runs in this browser tab, applies explicit bounds before expensive work, and does not send workspace text to a Nirmion API.
Useful when
Use the formatter when wording and attribution are already approved and repetitive wrapper cleanup is the remaining task.
Questions answered
Practical boundaries matter with text tools. These answers explain what is measured, what is retained, and when a manual review is still needed.
No. It formats the exact text you provide and has no source, rights, or attribution knowledge.
Not in this simple workflow. The optional attribution is repeated for all rows; process different speakers separately.
No. It adds a Markdown greater-than marker. Rendering depends on the destination Markdown parser.
Privacy and retention
Nirmion performs these operations with browser JavaScript. The workspace does not call the catalogue API with your source text, and completed-job content is kept only in this component memory for re-download.
A downloaded file remains in your browser downloads, device storage, backups, and any location where you share it. Clear or close the page when working on a shared device, and avoid pasting secrets into extensions or third-party clipboard managers.
Tool details
Nirmion Quote Formatter wraps one verified quotation per line with curly marks, straight ASCII marks, or Markdown blockquote syntax and can repeat one shared attribution. It preserves internal wording and focuses only on repetitive plain-text presentation cleanup. Blank lines are removed, surrounding whitespace is trimmed, and existing outer double quotation marks are stripped from each remaining line. The selected curly, straight, or Markdown block wrapper is then applied, followed by the exact optional attribution. Internal text is not searched or rewritten. This makes the behavior inspectable and repeatable instead of presenting an unexplained result.
The result downloads as text_nirmion_tools_quotes_formatted.txt for up to 100,000 characters. Guidance separates typography from accuracy, context, attribution, citation, rights, privacy, and nested quotation style decisions. The operation runs in this browser tab, applies explicit bounds before expensive work, and does not send workspace text to a Nirmion API. Downloading clears the active workspace while the latest three completed results remain available in this tab for re-download.
