Frequently Asked Questions

What spacing problems does this fix?
Runs of two or more spaces collapse to one — double spaces after sentences, alignment padding from tables, and irregular gaps introduced by copy-paste from PDFs or terminal output.
Does it affect tabs and line breaks?
No — only literal space characters are collapsed; tabs and newlines survive. To remove all whitespace entirely, use the Remove Whitespace tool instead.
Is my data private when I use this tool?
Yes. This tool runs entirely in your browser using client-side JavaScript — nothing you type is transmitted to, logged by, or stored on any server. You can safely process confidential text, tokens, or code.
