About Whitespace Cleaner

Remove unwanted whitespace — trailing spaces, repeated spaces, tabs, and blank lines — to tidy up text copied from PDFs, emails, or code. Normalises messy text into a clean, consistent form.

How to use

  1. Paste the text you want to clean.
  2. Choose which whitespace to strip: trailing spaces, multiple spaces, or empty lines.
  3. Copy the cleaned output.

Frequently asked questions

Will it break code indentation?
Use the options selectively — you can collapse repeated spaces while preserving leading indentation if you leave that option off.
Does it remove line breaks?
Only if you enable blank-line removal; single line breaks between content are preserved by default.
