Pasted text often arrives with double spaces between words, tabs masquerading as indentation, or trailing whitespace at the end of every line. This cleaner collapses runs of spaces and tabs into a single space and optionally trims line edges, without touching the line breaks themselves. Useful before sending an email, posting a comment, or normalising scraped content for analysis.
Drop the raw text into the input box — it accepts anything from a single line to a full document.
Click the button to apply the "Remove Extra Spaces" operation in a single pass, entirely inside your browser.
Compare the original and transformed text side by side to verify the change is exactly what you expected.
Copy the result to your clipboard or download it as a plain-text file.
Remove Extra Spaces does one small thing well. Cleaning up pasted text is the kind of task you do dozens of times a week — copied from a PDF, exported from a CMS, generated by another tool — and each time you lose a couple of minutes to fiddly regex or find-and-replace. This tool applies the change instantly and gives you the cleaned output ready to paste. Toolzer's design philosophy is simple: privacy-first (no tracking, no accounts), performance-first (the page is interactive in under a second on a 3G connection), and honesty-first (no fake ratings, no dark patterns, no upsells). Remove Extra Spaces follows the same rules as every other utility on the site. You can bookmark this page, share the URL with a colleague, or pin it to your browser's toolbar — the experience will be identical every visit, and it will keep working even if you're on airplane Wi-Fi. Real people use this tool for real work — freelancers cleaning up client deliverables, sysadmins triaging tickets, students finishing assignments — and it is tuned for those workflows, not for demo videos.

Standard space and tab only. Non-breaking spaces (U+00A0) and other Unicode spaces are preserved verbatim — use Find and Replace to normalise them.
