Runs entirely in your browserRemove or normalize line breaks, locally
Text copied from PDFs, emails, or terminals often arrives with line breaks in awkward places, extra blank lines, or trailing spaces. This tool cleans it up: join every line into one flowing block separated by a space, drop empty lines so paragraphs collapse, and trim leading and trailing spaces from each line. Mix and match the options and the cleaned text updates as you type. Everything runs in your browser and nothing is uploaded to any server.
Common questions
What does “join lines with a space” do?
It removes the line breaks and joins the lines into a single continuous block, inserting a space where each break was so words do not run together. Turn it off to keep the lines separate.
What does “remove empty lines” do?
It deletes lines that are blank (or contain only whitespace), which is useful for collapsing double-spaced text. It works whether or not you also join lines.
What does “trim each line” do?
It removes leading and trailing spaces and tabs from every line, cleaning up ragged indentation and invisible trailing whitespace.
Are Windows and Unix line endings both handled?
Yes. Carriage-return/line-feed pairs from Windows and lone line feeds from Unix and Mac are both recognized, so the options behave the same regardless of where the text came from.
Is my text uploaded anywhere?
No. The text is cleaned entirely in your browser tab as you type. Your text never leaves your device and nothing is stored.
