You can use ant pretty. Let me know if you need an example.
Very easy to use and will enforce a standard across everything not just
tabs.

You could also use the Ant task <fixcrlf/>
For example (assuming Struts convention of '4 whitespaces per tab'), we
could have

<fixcrlf
         srcdir="${src.java.dir}"
         tab="remove"
         tablength="4"/>
