Frequently asked questions
Will it remove my line breaks?
The cleaner focuses on repeated spaces and tabs within lines; paragraph structure is preserved so your text stays readable.
Why does pasted PDF text have so many extra spaces?
PDFs store text position visually rather than as flowing text, so copying often inserts artificial spaces and breaks — exactly what this tool cleans up.
Can I clean text of any length?
Yes, the tool runs locally in your browser and handles long documents without issue.
