Frequently asked questions
No, it keeps a single blank line between paragraphs but collapses longer runs down to one.
Where extra whitespace comes from
Copying text from a PDF, a web page or an old document often brings along double spaces, trailing spaces at the end of lines, and stacks of blank lines between paragraphs. These are invisible on screen but can cause formatting problems when the text is pasted elsewhere or processed by code.
This tool collapses multiple spaces into one, trims spaces from the start and end of each line, and reduces long runs of blank lines down to a single blank line between paragraphs.
