When to use it
Use it when copied text has weird gaps, misaligned spaces, tabs from tables, or punctuation that looks like it got dressed in the dark.

What this tool does
Remove Extra Spaces collapses repeated spaces, trims text, normalizes tabs, and fixes awkward spaces around punctuation and brackets.
How it works
Paste text, choose exactly which spacing rules to apply, review the live output, then copy the cleaned version. Processing stays in your browser.
Useful for
- Cleaning copied PDF text.
- Tidying email drafts and notes.
- Fixing spreadsheet-pasted text before sharing.
Limitations
The tool works on plain text spacing. It does not understand layout from PDFs or preserve rich text styles.
Questions before the button mashing
Will this remove line breaks?
Only if you turn off the option to preserve them. By default, useful line breaks stay put.
Does this upload my text?
No. The spacing cleanup runs locally in your browser.
