Why Use This Tool?

When you copy text from PDFs, emails, or older documents, unwanted line breaks often appear at the end of every visual line. This makes the text difficult to read, edit, or paste into other applications. Our tool fixes this instantly while intelligently preserving your paragraph structure.

Perfect For:

  • ✓ Students & Researchers copying quotes
  • ✓ Office Workers cleaning email drafts
  • ✓ Developers creating CSV lists or arrays
  • ✓ Writers formatting content for CMS

How It Works

Simply paste your text into the input box or upload a .txt file. The tool automatically detects and removes problematic line breaks. Unlike simple "find and replace" methods, our Smart Paragraph Detection ensures that actual paragraph breaks are kept intact.

Frequently Asked Questions

FAQ
PDFs store text in a fixed layout format. When you copy text, each visual line is often treated as a separate line of text, creating unwanted line breaks at the end of every sentence. This tool intelligently removes these breaks while preserving your paragraph structure.
Yes! The default mode 'Remove line breaks, keep paragraphs' is specifically designed to remove single line breaks (which appear at the end of every line in PDFs) while preserving double line breaks (actual paragraph separations). This gives you clean, readable text without losing your document structure.
Absolutely! Select the 'Replace line breaks with' mode and choose your separator (comma, comma + space, or custom). This is perfect for creating CSV data, SQL queries, or programming arrays from lists.
'Keep paragraphs' preserves double line breaks (paragraph separations) while removing single breaks. 'Remove ALL' converts your entire text into one continuous paragraph with no line breaks at all. Use 'Keep paragraphs' for most PDF text, and 'Remove ALL' when you need everything as one block.
In scanned PDFs and old documents, words are sometimes split across lines with hyphens (like 'compre-hensive'). This option removes the hyphen and joins the word back together to read 'comprehensive'. Enable this in the More Options section if you're working with scanned documents.
No! All text processing happens entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Your text never leaves your device, and nothing is stored or sent to any server. This tool is completely private and secure.
Yes! Click the '📄 Upload .txt' button in the input panel to upload text files up to 10MB. The tool will automatically load and process your file.
