Remove Line Breaks
Join text that has been split over many lines into one clean paragraph, using a space or no separator.
What is the Remove Line Breaks?
The Remove Line Breaks tool joins text that is broken over many lines into a single paragraph. It replaces each line break with a space or with nothing and can collapse repeated spaces. It is useful for text copied from PDFs, emails and narrow columns that keeps awkward breaks in the middle of sentences.
How to use it
- Paste the text with its line breaks into the box.
- Choose whether line breaks become a space or are removed.
- Leave the collapse option on to tidy repeated spaces.
- Copy the single-paragraph result.
Remove Line Breaks — FAQ
When should line breaks be replaced with nothing?
Use that option for text where each line holds part of a single long word or code, such as a wrapped web address. For normal sentences use a space.
Does it work with Windows line endings?
Yes. Both Windows and Mac or Linux line endings are treated as ordinary line breaks.
Can it keep paragraph breaks?
No. It joins everything into one block of text. To keep paragraphs, tidy the text in sections or use the extra spaces tool instead.
