Frequently Asked Questions
The Remove Extra Whitespace tool helps you clean up text by removing unnecessary spaces, tabs, and line breaks. It can collapse multiple spaces into a single space, trim leading and trailing whitespace, and even remove line breaks if needed.
The 'Trim Lines' option removes any leading or trailing whitespace from each line. This helps clean up text that has inconsistent indentation or extra spaces at the beginning or end of lines.
When 'Collapse Multiple Spaces' is enabled, any sequence of two or more spaces will be converted to a single space. This is useful for cleaning up text with inconsistent spacing.
Similar to collapsing spaces, the 'Collapse Multiple Tabs' option converts any sequence of two or more tab characters into a single tab. This helps standardize indentation in code or tabular data.
The 'Remove Line Breaks' option converts all line breaks to spaces and joins all lines into a single continuous text. This is useful when you need to convert multi-line text into a single line.
