wc_remove_non_displayable_chars() │ WC 9.9.0

Removes useless non-displayable and problematic Unicode characters from a string.

This function eliminates characters that can cause formatting issues, invisible text, or unexpected behavior in copy-pasted text. Specifically, it removes:

• Soft hyphen (U+00AD) – Invisible unless text is broken across lines.
• Zero-width spaces & joiners (U+200B–U+200D) – Invisible and can cause copy/paste issues.
• Directional markers (U+200E–U+200F, U+202A–U+202E) – Can affect text rendering.
• Byte Order Mark (BOM) (U+FEFF) – Can interfere with encoding.
• Interlinear annotation characters (U+FFF9–U+FFFB) – Rarely used and unnecessary in checkout fields.

It does not remove:

• Non-breaking space (U+00A0) – Useful for preventing line breaks in addresses.
• Word joiner (U+2060) – Sometimes needed for proper text rendering in certain scripts.

Хуков нет.
