Remove Extra Spaces
Collapse double spaces and trim stray whitespace from text.
Clean up messy spacing
Copying from PDFs, emails, or web pages often leaves double spaces, tabs, and trailing whitespace that look fine until they break alignment or a search. This tool collapses runs of whitespace into single spaces and trims the ends, so pasted text comes out clean and consistent.
It is the fast fix before importing into a spreadsheet, posting copy, or comparing two blocks of text that only differ by invisible spacing.
What it changes and privacy
It normalises spaces within lines while leaving your words untouched, so the content reads identically but without the hidden padding. All cleanup runs in your browser and the text is never uploaded.

They usually come from copying out of PDFs, emails, or web pages where layout adds extra whitespace.
Is my text private?
