HovText removes any text formatting from the clipboard and it works as a clipboard manager that can store and retrieve previous copied texts and images. Any text in the clipboard will be pasted as cleartext without any HTML code, font size, color or formatting etc. HovText remembers all copied texts and it is possible to restore the original formatting on the previous copied texts. It can also save the clipboards to local computer.
A typical scenario is to copy a text from the internet and paste this into e.g. Outlook, Word or alike. If the copied text has formatting, then this will be pasted along also and that is often inconvenient as it spoils the current formatting for the document. Some applications has their own way of importing the unformatted text, but with HovText then ALL programs has this option and it works in the same way... all the time :-)

HovText is a very easy to use and intuitive application, that will remove all text formatting/styling from the copied text. It is also a clipboard manager, that will save the clipboards for later reuse, even after a computer reboot. Must-have power-tool for daily work :-)
