Remove Extra Spaces
Text copied from PDFs, websites or chat apps often hides non-breaking spaces and zero-width characters — this removes them.

Fix messy spacing in one pass
Paste text and the cleaned version appears instantly. Every option can be switched on or off, and the summary shows what was changed.
- Trim each line — removes spaces and tabs at the start and end of lines.
- Multiple spaces → one — collapses double or triple spaces between words.
- Tabs → space — useful for text pasted from spreadsheets.
- Full-width spaces — the wide space used in Chinese, Japanese and Korean text.
- Invisible characters — zero-width spaces, joiners, word joiners, byte-order marks and soft hyphens, which can break searches, form validation and code.
- Non-breaking and other special spaces are always turned into normal spaces.
“Remove all spaces” deletes every space — handy for phone numbers, codes and IDs.
Frequently asked questions
Are line breaks kept?
Yes. To remove blank lines or join lines, use the Remove Blank Lines or Line Break tools.
Why do invisible characters matter?
They can make two identical-looking words different, so searches, logins and spreadsheet lookups fail.
