Text Cleaner
Paste messy text and clean it up instantly. Remove extra spaces, blank lines, trailing whitespace, and inconsistent line breaks. Especially useful for text copied from PDFs, emails, or other sources.
What Each Option Does
- Remove Extra Spaces — collapses multiple consecutive spaces and tabs into a single space.
- Trim Lines — removes leading and trailing whitespace from every line.
- Remove Blank Lines — collapses runs of three or more newlines into at most two, preserving paragraph breaks.
- Normalize Line Breaks — converts Windows-style
\r\nand old Mac-style\rline endings to standard\n. - Tabs → Spaces — replaces every tab character with four spaces.
- Clean All — applies all of the above in sequence for a thorough cleanup.
When to Use This
Text copied from PDFs, Word documents, emails, or web pages often comes with hidden formatting issues: double spaces, trailing whitespace, inconsistent line endings, or excessive blank lines. This tool fixes all of that in one step.
FAQ
Will this change the actual content of my text?
No. It only affects whitespace and line breaks. Your words, punctuation, and structure remain intact.
What does “Clean All” do?
It runs every cleanup step in order: normalize line breaks, collapse spaces, trim lines, collapse blank lines, and trim the start/end of the text.
