How it works

How to use the Remove Extra Spaces tool

  1. 1

    Paste text

    Text copied from PDFs often has odd spacing.

  2. 2

    Choose what to clean

    Tabs, trailing spaces, blank lines.

  3. 3

    Copy

    See how many characters were removed.

Typical fixes

Collapses runs of spaces (including non-breaking spaces) to one, trims each line, converts tabs, and either keeps, collapses or removes blank lines.

Limitations

We’d rather be upfront about what this tool can’t do yet:

  • Intentional alignment with multiple spaces (e.g. in code) will be collapsed.
