Remove Line Breaks
Remove unwanted line breaks from text copied from PDFs, emails and websites, while keeping paragraph breaks. Also tidies extra spaces. Free.
Clean up broken lines
Text copied from PDFs, old emails or narrow columns often arrives with a line break at the end of every line, so it won't reflow in a document or form. This tool joins those lines back into flowing sentences. With Keep paragraph breaks ticked, blank lines between paragraphs are kept, so your structure survives; untick it to put everything on one line. Remove extra spaces tidies the double spaces and stray spaces that copying usually leaves behind.

Frequently asked questions
Why does text from PDFs have line breaks?
PDFs store text line by line as it's laid out on the page, so copying keeps a break at the end of each line.
How do I keep paragraphs?
Leave Keep paragraph breaks ticked. Paragraphs separated by a blank line stay separate.
Can I put everything on one line?
Yes. Untick Keep paragraph breaks and all line breaks become spaces.
Is my text sent anywhere?
No. It's processed in your browser, and nothing you type is stored or sent anywhere.
