What this tool does

Text copied from PDFs, emails, code editors, and chat apps is often "hard-wrapped" — every visible line ends in an invisible line break. When you paste it somewhere new, the text keeps those awkward breaks and looks broken. Remove Line Breaks strips out those newlines so your text flows as one continuous block, or replaces each break with a single space so words don't run together.

You stay in control with three options. Replace breaks with a space keeps words separated instead of mashing them into one long string. Keep paragraph breaks preserves the blank lines between real paragraphs while removing the messy in-paragraph wraps. Trim each line cleans up stray spaces and tabs at the start and end of every line before joining.

Why the paragraph option matters

Most "hard-wrapped" text still uses a blank line between paragraphs. If you removed every break, all your paragraphs would collapse into one wall of text. Keeping paragraph breaks removes only the single line breaks inside a paragraph, so you get clean, readable prose that's still properly divided — ideal for pasting into a document, a form, or a CMS.

FAQ

Does my text get uploaded anywhere?: No. Everything runs in your browser with JavaScript. Your text never leaves your device and nothing is stored.
What's the difference between the two "space" behaviours?: With the space option on, "line one" and "line two" become "line one line two". With it off, they join directly as "line oneline two" — useful when you're rejoining a word split across lines.
Will it handle Windows and Mac line endings?: Yes. It normalises Windows (CRLF), old Mac (CR), and Unix (LF) breaks, so mixed sources are cleaned consistently.
Does it remove extra spaces too?: When you replace breaks with spaces, it also collapses any double spaces created by joining into a single space, so the result stays tidy.
