About Remove Empty Lines
Text pasted from a PDF, a spreadsheet, or another document often comes with extra blank lines and stray spaces scattered throughout. This tool cleans it up in one pass — removing empty lines, trimming leading and trailing whitespace, or both.
Choose exactly what to clean: blank lines only, whitespace trimming only, or both together. Everything runs locally in your browser.

Frequently Asked Questions
What counts as an "empty" line?
A line with no characters, or one that only contains whitespace — both are removed when that option is on.
What does "trim whitespace" do?
Removes extra spaces or tabs from the start and end of each line, without touching the actual words.
Can I use just one of these features instead of both?
Yes — each is an independent toggle.
Is my text uploaded anywhere?
No. Cleaning happens entirely in your browser.
