How to use this tool

Paste messy text from a document, spreadsheet, CMS, email, or log file.

Choose cleanup options such as trimming lines, collapsing spaces, converting tabs, and limiting duplicate blank lines.

Copy the normalized text for documentation, publishing, import scripts, or diff-friendly commits.

What text cleanup can fix

Whitespace cleanup can remove trailing spaces, normalize line endings, collapse repeated spaces, and reduce excessive blank lines.

This is useful before importing CSV-like text, preparing Markdown, cleaning copied website content, or comparing two text files.

It does not rewrite meaning or grammar; it only normalizes characters and spacing based on the selected options.

Avoid accidental data changes

Collapsing spaces can be wrong for code, fixed-width data, poetry, or legal text where spacing matters.

Review the output before replacing source content, especially when tabs or multiple spaces are meaningful.

For code formatting, use a language-aware formatter instead of a generic whitespace normalizer.

Examples

Trim and collapse copied text

Input
  Hello   Lumio  \n\n\n  Tools\t now   
Output
Hello Lumio\n\nTools now

Prepare text before diffing

Normalizing line endings and trailing spaces can make diffs easier to read when content came from different editors or operating systems.

FAQ

Will this change words or punctuation?

No. It only changes whitespace according to the selected cleanup options.

Can this be used for code?

Only for simple cleanup. For real code formatting, use a language-aware formatter to avoid changing meaningful whitespace.

Does it handle Windows and Unix line endings?

Yes. It can normalize mixed line endings so copied text behaves consistently.

Is the text uploaded?

No. Cleanup runs locally in your browser.
