  2. 2Click "Remove All Extra" to collapse every run of whitespace (including line breaks) to a single space, or pick a more targeted option.
  3. 3"Remove Extra Spaces" collapses repeated spaces/tabs but keeps your line breaks; "Remove Leading" and "Remove Trailing" trim each line individually.
  4. 4Click "Copy" to copy the cleaned text to your clipboard.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between the four buttons?

"Remove All Extra" collapses everything including line breaks into single spaces. "Remove Extra Spaces" keeps line breaks but collapses repeated spaces/tabs. "Remove Leading"/"Remove Trailing" trim whitespace from the start or end of each line without touching spacing inside the line.

Tips & Tricks

  • ✓"Remove Leading"/"Remove Trailing" are useful for cleaning up indentation copied from emails or PDFs without collapsing spacing within each line.
  • ✓Clean up code snippets with "Remove Trailing" to strip accidental trailing spaces before sharing them.
  • ✓Run "Remove All Extra" on data copied from PDFs or web pages, which often carries inconsistent spacing and line breaks.
