About Remove Extra Spaces

Paste any text and strip out redundant whitespace in one click. Collapse multiple consecutive spaces into one, trim leading and trailing spaces per line, remove extra tab characters, and optionally preserve or collapse line breaks. The words and their order are never changed — only the excess whitespace is removed. Ideal for cleaning copied web content, code comments, document exports, and any text that has picked up unwanted spacing.
