Fix Messy Pasted Text
Paste text copied from a PDF, spreadsheet or old document and toggle exactly what to clean: collapse multiple spaces into one, trim leading/trailing whitespace per line, remove empty lines, convert tabs to spaces, or join wrapped lines back into paragraphs. Each option is independent, so you fix only what is actually broken.
The classic cases: text copied from a PDF that has a line break after every sentence, a spreadsheet export riddled with double spaces, or code with mixed tabs and spaces. Everything runs locally as you type.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does "join wrapped lines" do?
It merges lines that do not end in a full stop into the next line — undoing the hard line breaks that PDF-to-text copying often inserts mid-sentence, while leaving real paragraph breaks (blank lines) intact.
Can I clean only some things and not others?
Yes — each cleanup step has its own toggle, so you can, for example, remove empty lines without touching spacing.
Is my text uploaded?
No — cleaning happens as you type, entirely in your browser.
