CLEANUP GUIDE

Whitespace and line-ending cleanup guide

These notes explain regular spaces, tabs, per-line trimming, blank lines, and exact LF/CRLF output for pasted text.
Regular spaces

Collapse U+0020 only

Repeated-space cleanup reduces runs of two or more regular U+0020 spaces to one. NBSP, full-width spaces, and zero-width spaces remain unchanged by default.

Per line

Trim each line separately

The tool removes leading and trailing horizontal whitespace on every line rather than only trimming the document edges. Text content and line order stay intact.

Tabs

Tab removal is deletion

TAB (U+0009) characters are deleted, so review tables, code, or text where tabs separate words or columns.

Blank lines

Blank-line removal is optional

Lines that are empty after cleanup can be removed. Turn this option off when blank lines intentionally separate paragraphs.

Line endings

LF and CRLF are code formats

Mixed CRLF, CR, and LF input is normalized internally, then emitted as LF or CRLF. This does not join or delete lines.

Exact output

Verify CRLF in TXT bytes

A browser textarea may visually normalize line endings. When exact Windows-style CRLF matters, use the downloaded TXT result as the reference.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

01Does it remove every line break?+

No. Line-ending normalization only makes CRLF, CR, and LF codes consistent.

02Will paragraphs remain if blank-line removal is off?+

Yes. Other cleanup options do not delete the lines themselves.

03Can words join after removing tabs?+

Yes. TAB characters are deleted, so review the result.

04Is my text or uploaded file sent to a server?+

No. Typed text, TXT/MD/CSV files, and the cleaned result are processed locally in your browser.

05Can I save Windows-style line endings?+

Yes. Choose CRLF and download the TXT file.
