Add Commas to Numbers Tool

About

---

Use this tool to punctuate numbers in a text with commas or periods. It functions by taking out the numerals and adding commas and periods where necessary. Any numbers with more than three digits should generally contain a comma after every third digit when writing them (reading from right to left).

The tool presumes that the text's numbers are not structured, but it can recognize decimal separators and the fractional portion of the numbers (e.g. 1000.00). Commas cannot be used to insert periods after they have already been used to do so (for European languages). Use the **"Undo"" option under the Edit button to undo the changes.

Use comma

---

Every third digit is separated by a comma in US/UK English, and the period serves as the decimal separator. The default setting is this.

Before

1000
1000.00
10000

After

1,000
1,000.00
10,000

Use period

---

It is the other way around in several European nations. The decimal point is replaced by a comma, while the thousands separator is a period. For other languages, use this option.

Before

1000
1000,00
10000

After

1.000
1.000,00
10.000
