Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to common questions about our Remove Extra Spaces tool.
How do I remove extra spaces from text online?
Paste your text into the input box, choose the cleaning options you need, and copy the cleaned output. The default mode trims leading and trailing spaces, collapses repeated spaces, removes extra blank lines, converts tabs, and normalizes hidden whitespace.
Does this text cleaner upload my text?
No. The cleaner runs entirely in your browser. Your text is not sent to a server, saved in a database, or shared with third-party APIs.
Can I remove line breaks but keep paragraphs?
Yes. Use the "Remove Line Breaks" preset or enable the "Preserve paragraph breaks" option. It removes single line breaks inside paragraphs while keeping double line breaks as paragraphs.
Can this clean text copied from a PDF?
Yes. The PDF preset is designed for text copied from PDFs, emails, and narrow columns. It can remove broken line breaks, extra spaces, tabs, and blank lines.
Can this clean ChatGPT text?
Yes. Use the "Clean AI Text" preset to remove extra blank lines, hidden characters, repeated spaces, and unwanted pasted formatting without changing the words.
What is the difference between removing spaces and removing whitespace?
Spaces are normal blank characters between words. Whitespace can also include tabs, new lines, carriage returns, non-breaking spaces, and hidden zero-width characters. Removing all whitespace is destructive and can join all words together.
Can I remove blank lines only?
Yes. Disable other cleaning options and enable only "Remove blank lines" or "Reduce multiple blank lines".
Will this change my spelling or grammar?
No. This tool only changes spacing, line breaks, tabs, and hidden characters. It does not rewrite, correct, or paraphrase your text.
Does it work on mobile?
Yes. The tool is designed to work in modern mobile and desktop browsers.
Can I download the cleaned text?
Yes. After cleaning, click "Download TXT" or choose another format to save the cleaned output.
