Clean up messy text instantly. Remove extra spaces, blank lines, HTML tags, and special characters. Paste from Word or PDF, get clean plain text.
Text copied from websites, Word documents, PDFs, and emails often carries hidden formatting: extra spaces, hard line breaks, HTML tags, smart quotes, and special characters that break downstream tools. Cleaning this text manually is tedious and error-prone. A text cleaner applies a set of transformations in one pass to produce plain, consistent output.
Paste text into the input area and toggle the cleaning options needed. Options are applied in a fixed order: trim line whitespace first, then collapse spaces, remove blank lines, collapse line breaks, strip HTML tags, remove special characters, normalize Unicode, and convert smart quotes to straight quotes. The output updates instantly with each toggle change.
Use this tool before pasting content into a CMS, database field, API payload, or plain text document. The HTML strip mode is useful for content copied from web pages or rich text editors. Smart-to-straight quote conversion prevents encoding issues in JSON, CSV, and code strings. The stats bar shows how many characters and lines were removed so the impact of each option is visible.
