Start with spacing before rewriting
Messy pasted text often looks worse than it is because of extra spaces, tabs and blank lines.
Clean whitespace first, then edit wording. That keeps the original meaning intact while making the draft easier to read.
Keep meaningful line breaks
Not every line break is noise. Lists, addresses, code snippets and poem-like formatting can depend on line breaks.
Use cleanup settings that match the type of content you are handling.
