Remove Letters
Strip letters out and keep the numbers, symbols and structure.
Quick Tool Overview
Remove Letters is the mirror of removing numbers: it strips the letters out and leaves the digits, symbols and structure behind. That is what a column of values like "Order #4821 (approved)" needs when only the figure matters, and you can restrict the removal to one script when the text mixes alphabets.

About the Remove Letters
This is the mirror image of removing numbers, and it exists for the same reason data does not arrive clean. A column of values like "Order #4821 (approved)" contains one number you want and a lot of text you do not. Taking the letters out leaves the figures and the structure around them.
You can remove every letter, or restrict it to a specific alphabet — removing Latin letters while keeping Cyrillic, for instance, or the reverse. Spaces, punctuation and line breaks are kept by default so the shape of each row survives, but there is a switch to collapse the gaps left behind if all you want is the bare numbers.
Key features of the Remove Letters
Structure preserved
Brackets, hashes, currency symbols and decimal points stay, so each row keeps its shape.
Script-specific removal
Strip Latin letters while leaving Cyrillic, Greek or CJK in place, which is how you remove an English label from a non-English value.
Optional gap collapsing
Close up the spaces left behind when all you want is the bare value.
Line-by-line processing
A whole column cleans in one paste, with each row handled independently.
Download the result
Save the cleaned column straight to a text file rather than copying it in pieces.

Frequently asked questions
Yes by default. Only letters are removed, so brackets, hashes, currency symbols and decimal points all stay. There are separate switches if you want those gone too.
Just the punctuation and spacing — which is not very useful. This tool is for mixed data rows rather than for text, where the Number Extractor is usually the better choice.
Yes. Restricting removal to the Latin script leaves Cyrillic, Greek, Arabic and CJK characters in place, which is how you strip an English label off a non-English value.
This keeps the structure and removes the letters from it. The Number Extractor throws the structure away and gives you a clean list of the numbers it found.
