This tool reverses that spacing, collapsing the data structure back into standard TSV format. Whether you’re preparing clean TSV for scripts, imports, or analysis, this gives you instant, accurate output with zero friction all right in your browser.

Example:

Input:

Name		Age		City
Sean		32		London
Jane		29		Paris

Name	Age	City
Sean	32	London
Jane	29	Paris

Common Use Cases:
