Why use this tool

  • Three modes — fits most cleanup needs from PDFs, OCR output, and copy-paste artefacts.
  • Handles Windows (\r\n), Mac (\r), and Unix (\n) line endings uniformly.
  • Keep paragraphs mode preserves blank-line paragraph breaks but joins wrapped lines.
  • Pure client-side — your text never leaves your browser.

Frequently asked questions

When should I use "Keep paragraphs" mode?

When you are cleaning text from a PDF or column-wrapped source where each visual line is a newline but paragraph breaks are double newlines. This mode joins wrapped lines within a paragraph and keeps the paragraph separation.

Will this break my code or JSON?

Stripping line breaks from code or JSON usually still works for valid syntax, but minified output is hard to read. Use a JSON/code formatter if you want compact-but-readable output.

Does this work on very large files?

It runs entirely in your browser. Performance scales with your device — a few MB of text is fine on modern machines.
