How to get rid of "dots" and null texts in your drawing?

A drawing can contain "null" entities/objects like lines or arcs with zero length or texts containing only spaces.
An ideal tool to remove these entities is the KILLDOTS program (see Download). It removes short or null lines, polylines, arcs, circles with radius almost equal to 0 and empty texts.
