It didn't work on mine for some odd reason, i still have a 57% originality. i did it on microsoft word but it didnt work at all. maybe ill try it using a notepad or something.
Dude, i seriously dont get this, i got an essay to hand in for science for tomorrow.... so basically i just go on character map copy the no widht thingy past it in between certain words on my essay and im good to go, huh?
@jakes625PS3 does it still work? because my friend tried it another way by quoting each sentence and whiting the quotes out, meaning change the text color to white and idk if turnitin update it yet
@KilgoreTrout1907 That is very strange. What editing software did you do this in? I just used a .txt but I'll inform!!! In the mean time just delete the paper, do this, and change a couple of words to be safe.
In order to make this process much much faster, go to the FIND function on word, type in a letter (i.e n) and use the REPLACE function to replace n with (n and and the pasted zero-width space after it).
Repeat this process with 5 or 6 more letters, and you're good to go.
@skyethebeast I use word 2007 and I did the same , replaced n with n and pasted zero width space after it . but in there are all red squiglee lines. what should I do with those and turnintin report does not change at all. I don't know what I am doing wrong.
Yeah, but the prof can still just look at wikipedia like you did. Most profs don't use turnitin as the only defense against plagiarism, they can usually tell when you're doing it anyway. Plus, they can see this video too you know.
Doesn't turn it in have a spelling checker or mechanics checker? If the teacher sees a lot of words spelled incorrectly even though it looks correct (thanks to zero-width spaces), wouldn't he/she get suspicious.
@jakes625PS3 Unfortunately, this is for a class with a professor. I'm going to try to paraphrase as much as I can and use this method just as an extra precaution lol.
@jakes625PS3 means when i typed something in google search with a zero space, google does not recognize the word. like if u type "go(zero width space"ogle", the search engine will not recognize that its written google. this means that search engine will not be able to match the word for plagiarism. but there is a problem, when i insert zero width space in ms word 2007, it inserts a proper space. like the letter "go(zero width space)ogle" will be written as "go ogle". i am using vista. thanx
@jakes625PS3 does this work on microsoft word? i tried it but it was still showing the spaces. i went on my notepad and it worked. also, does turnitin accept documents from notepad?
@franxxxa yes i did! and now it says that i cant upload it because my file contains multiple spaces!!! does it have to be on UNICODE? or what? im talking about when u save it and ull see a drop down arrow. help pleaseee
@franxxxa calm down, I got ya bud ;). I usually do it as .txt because I don't have word, but it seems to work on wordpad (word replica on win7). What do you mean drop down arrow? Would you happen to have a picture?
Does it 100% work

@skyethebeast
just a question, this can be traced right. like back fire.
if you replace ''zero-width space", with lets say, #.
you can see all the ''blanks'' right?
just checking, trying to clear my tracks.
