Remove Line Breaks from Text

Text copied from a PDF or an email often arrives broken at every line. This joins it back into flowing paragraphs, keeping real paragraph breaks if you want them.

Everything runs in your browser, so even long lists stay private and the tool works with the network switched off.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does text from a PDF break at every line?

Because a PDF stores each visual line separately — it has no concept of a flowing paragraph. Copying preserves those hard line endings, which then look wrong in a word processor.

What does keeping paragraph breaks do?

It collapses single line breaks into spaces but preserves blank lines between paragraphs. Turn it off if you want the entire text as one continuous block.

Are extra spaces cleaned up too?

Yes. Runs of spaces and tabs are collapsed to a single space, and leading and trailing spaces are removed from each paragraph.

Will it damage my text?

No — your input stays in the box above, so you can adjust the option and run it again. Only the copy in the result box is modified.
