Remove Line Breaks
Remove or convert line breaks -- unwrap hard-wrapped text from PDFs and emails into flowing paragraphs, or flatten everything to one line -- instantly, in your browser.
Remove line breaks joins hard-wrapped lines back into flowing text — or flattens everything onto one line. The paragraph mode keeps blank-line paragraph breaks intact, which is what you usually want when fixing text copied from a PDF or email.
How this works
Text copied from a PDF or email often has a line break at the end of every visual line, not just at the end of each paragraph — a leftover of how those documents were formatted for a fixed page width. "Unwrap paragraphs" mode joins those in-paragraph breaks back into flowing text with a single space, while leaving actual paragraph breaks (a blank line) intact. "All to one line" and "breaks to spaces" modes are for when you need the whole block flattened, such as pasting into a spreadsheet cell.
Windows-style line endings (CRLF) and old Mac-style endings (CR) are normalized to a single standard before processing, so mixed-origin text is handled consistently.
FAQs
Why does PDF text have line breaks everywhere?
PDFs (and some email clients) hard-wrap text at a fixed width for display, inserting a real line break at the end of every visual line rather than only at paragraph ends. Pasting that text elsewhere carries those breaks along.
What’s the difference between a line break and a paragraph break?
A single line break just wraps to the next line within the same paragraph. A paragraph break is a blank line — it marks the start of a new paragraph. This tool’s default mode preserves that distinction.
How do I keep my paragraphs intact?
Use the default "Unwrap paragraphs" mode — it joins in-paragraph breaks but keeps blank-line paragraph breaks exactly where they are.
Is my text uploaded anywhere?
No. This tool runs entirely in your browser — your text is never sent to a server, uploaded, or stored anywhere.
