Remove Line Breaks
Remove Line Breaks is part of Toolspire and is ready as soon as this page loads. Repeated spaces collapse. This is the opposite of the wrap-text page, which puts breaks back in at a column.
On this page
What you can do here
One paragraph
The result has no newline characters.
Blank lines do not stack spaces
Three blank lines still leave one space.
The undo is wrap text
Give that page a column if you need breaks again.
The sequence
How to use the Remove Line Breaks
- 1
Paste the wrapped paragraph
The sample should read hello world.
- 2
Expect one line
A remaining break means the box still has the source, not the result.
- 3
Use wrap text to put breaks back
This page will not remember where they were.
Worth knowing
- Remove Line Breaks on Toolspire: hello and world on two lines become hello world.
- A blank line does not survive as a paragraph break. It becomes the same single space.
- Spaces and tabs already on the line collapse with the join.
- Wrap text is the tool that inserts breaks. This one removes them.
Newlines become spaces
A hard wrap from an email or a PDF paste puts a newline in the middle of a sentence. Replacing every run of whitespace, including those newlines, with a single space joins the sentence. A blank line, which was a paragraph boundary, is treated the same way: one space. If you needed the paragraphs kept, this is the wrong page. It is deliberately destructive of vertical space.
