What is FreeFormat (AI document formatter)?
Overview
FreeFormat is an AI document formatter that converts natural‑language guidelines into a structured template and applies styles such as font, size, spacing, numbering, and captions automatically.
We focus on theses and academic papers (thesis format and academic paper format) so you can spend time on content, not formatting.

- 3Click “Start formatting” to apply fonts, spacing, margins and heading styles automatically

FAQ
- What formatting issues can FreeFormat fix automatically?
- It focuses on repetitive layout tasks: spacing and indents (including removing extra spaces/tabs), consistent body & heading styles (multi‑level headings), reference list layout (e.g., hanging indents), and caption styles for tables/figures.
- Do you change my content?
- No. We only apply styles and layout, not the text itself.
- What is not guaranteed yet?
- Complex headers/footers and section‑based page numbering, fine‑grained Word equation objects, all table‑internal styling details, character‑level mixed‑language font rules, and citation/reference content rules (field order/punctuation).
- Is my file safe?
- Files are processed for formatting only and cleaned up later. See Privacy.
- What if results look wrong?
- Try another template first. If issues persist, send feedback with what is wrong (e.g., heading size/spacing) and the official guideline link.
