About the Remove Extra Spaces & Line Breaks
Text copied from PDF files, emails, scanned documents or web pages often arrives full of double spaces, random tabs, hard line breaks in the middle of sentences and empty lines. The Remove Extra Spaces & Line Breaks tool fixes all of that automatically.
Choose exactly what to clean: collapse multiple spaces into one, trim spaces from the start and end of each line, delete blank lines, convert tabs to spaces, or join broken lines into flowing paragraphs. Enable Keep paragraphs together with Remove all line breaks to unwrap text from a PDF while preserving the blank line between paragraphs. It also converts invisible non-breaking spaces into normal spaces.
How to use the Remove Extra Spaces & Line Breaks
- Paste the messy text into the left box.
- Tick the cleaning options you need.
- The clean version updates live on the right with a count of removed characters.
- Copy the clean text into your document.
