Remove Extra Spaces
Clean uneven spacing in pasted text. Trim line edges, collapse repeated spaces and tabs, and decide whether blank lines should remain, disappear or become single separators.
- Trim spaces around each line
- Collapse repeated horizontal whitespace
- Choose a blank-line cleanup mode
Repair copied paragraphs
Paste text with extra spaces or tab runs. Horizontal whitespace is reduced while the selected blank-line mode controls paragraph separation.
Keep paragraph breaks
Preserve blank lines when they carry meaning, or collapse consecutive blank lines to one for a more compact passage.
Prepare comparable list entries
Cleaning spaces before deduplicating helps entries that look identical compare consistently. Review the cleaned list before removing repetitions.
Avoid whitespace-sensitive code
Indentation matters in formats such as Python and YAML. This text cleanup can change that structure and is not a code formatter.
Clean Text Whitespace FAQs
The blank-line setting controls empty lines; ordinary content lines remain distinct.
It normalizes whitespace, but it does not apply grammar or language-specific punctuation rules.
Choose the blank-line setting that keeps one blank line between sections. The cleaner trims line edges and collapses repeated horizontal spaces without combining ordinary content lines. Avoid this operation on indentation-sensitive code or tables whose spacing carries meaning.
