What is a Whitespace Remover?
A whitespace remover cleans text by removing or normalizing extra spaces, tabs, and blank lines. You can trim leading and trailing whitespace from the whole block or each line, collapse multiple spaces into one, remove blank lines, or strip all whitespace to produce a single continuous line. It is useful for cleaning pasted content, logs, data exports, or any text with messy spacing.
All processing happens in your browser. Your text is never sent to any server, so it is safe for sensitive or private content.
How it Works
- Paste or type your text into the input field.
- Choose options: trim whole block, trim each line, collapse spaces, remove blank lines, or remove all whitespace.
- View the result in the output field. The output updates as you type or change options.
- Copy the result with one click.
When "Remove all whitespace" is on, every space, tab, and newline is removed and other options are ignored. Otherwise, options are applied in a sensible order: trim each line, collapse spaces, remove blank lines, then trim the whole block.
Options
- Trim leading and trailing whitespace (whole text): Removes spaces and tabs from the start and end of the entire text block.
- Trim each line: Removes leading and trailing spaces and tabs from every line.
- Collapse multiple spaces and tabs to single space: Replaces any run of spaces/tabs with one space (per line).
- Remove blank lines: Removes lines that are empty (or only whitespace after trimming).
- Remove all whitespace: Strips every space, tab, and newline so the result is one continuous line with no gaps. When on, other options are ignored.
Common Use Cases
- Pasted content: Clean text copied from PDFs, web pages, or emails where spacing is inconsistent.
- Logs and exports: Normalize spacing in log files or data exports for easier reading or parsing.
- Data cleanup: Prepare CSV-like or line-based data by trimming and collapsing spaces, or remove blank lines.
- Code and config: Clean up config files or snippets with extra indentation or trailing spaces.
- Single-line output: Use "Remove all whitespace" to minify or flatten text into one line (e.g. for tokens or compact storage).
Frequently Asked Questions
Collapse multiple spaces and tabs to single space replaces any run of spaces, tabs, or both
with a single space. For example, "hello world" becomes "hello world". It is applied per line, so line breaks are preserved unless you also remove blank lines.
When Remove all whitespace is on, every space, tab, and newline character is deleted. The result is one continuous string with no gaps. Other options are ignored. Use this for minifying text or when you need a single line (e.g. for tokenization or compact storage).
