Transparent methodology
What the result includes—and what it does not
Built for anyone fighting invisible spaces, double spaces and stray line breaks inside cells.
Calculation method
- 1Each cell is trimmed, runs of spaces collapsed and internal line breaks replaced with single spaces, streaming row by row.
- 2Quoting is preserved, so cleaning never corrupts cells that legitimately contain commas or quotes.
Assumptions and limits
- Cleaning is applied to every column in V1; per-column cleaning can be simulated with Find & replace scoped to one column.
- File contents are processed locally and never uploaded; the only telemetry is an aggregate operation counter with no file names, column names or contents.
