Collapse Spaces
Collapse runs of multiple spaces into a single space. Useful for cleaning uneven gaps left by copying from web pages, PDFs, or tables so paragraphs read compactly; no text is removed.
How to use
- Repeated spaces are reduced to one, while single spaces and the text itself stay unchanged.
- Use it before pasting into an email or document to clear alignment spaces you no longer need.
FAQ
Are line breaks collapsed too?
This tool works on spaces; whether line breaks are affected depends on the rule. If you want a single continuous line, use the join-lines tool and check its output.
Will spaces between Chinese characters disappear?
Runs of spaces between Chinese characters are reduced to one, not removed entirely. If you need tight Chinese text, delete the remaining single spaces by hand after conversion.
