Remove Extra Spaces
Our free text cleaner removes extra spaces from your text in one click. It collapses runs of spaces and tabs into a single space, trims the start and end of every line, and drops blank lines. Each option can be toggled off. Perfect for pasted email, formatted documents, CSV data and code. Everything runs in your browser, so your text never leaves your device.

Why clean up extra spaces?
Text pasted from emails, PDFs or word processors often carries double spaces, misaligned indentation and stray blank lines. This tool normalizes it in one click so you can reuse it anywhere without cleanup.
What does it do?
Three independent steps: collapse multiple spaces/tabs to one, trim each line's edges, and remove empty lines. Enable or disable each option to fit your need.

Frequently asked questions
Will this remove all spaces from my text?
No. It collapses multiple spaces into a single space — it does not delete every space. Enable or disable the trim and blank-line options individually to control the result.
Does it preserve line breaks?
Yes. Newlines are kept; only spaces and tabs between words are collapsed, and each line's edges are trimmed.
Is my text uploaded anywhere?
No. Everything runs in your browser and your text never leaves your device.
