Remove Extra Spaces is now live on Tools.Town — a simple text cleaning tool that collapses multiple spaces, strips leading and trailing whitespace, removes excessive blank lines, and optionally converts tabs to spaces, all in one pass.
Clean up copy-pasted text, scraped content, or exported data with one click.
What Does It Do?
Collapse Spaces
Turns double (or triple, or more) spaces between words into single spaces throughout the text.
Trim Whitespace
Removes leading and trailing spaces from each line, and strips spaces at the start and end of the whole text.
Blank Lines
Collapses multiple consecutive blank lines into a single blank line — or removes them entirely.
The tool never removes intentional single spaces or line breaks — it only collapses sequences of more than one.
How It Works
Paste text
Paste any text with inconsistent spacing — from copy-paste, data exports, or scanned documents.
Choose options
Toggle which types of whitespace to clean: double spaces, line trims, blank lines, tabs.
Copy clean text
Click Copy to grab the cleaned text, ready to use in your document or codebase.
Why We Built It
Text pasted from PDFs, emails, web pages, and design tools is often littered with extra whitespace — double spaces between sentences, spaces at line ends, blank lines duplicated four times. Remove Extra Spaces handles all of this in a single operation, leaving clean, consistent text ready to use.
