How It Works

1

Paste or type your text

Copy content from a PDF, email, chat, or document and paste it into the input box. You can also click Example Text to try it quickly.

  • Large text is fine — processing happens entirely in your browser.
  • If you see unexpected breaks, they’re usually newlines (\n) or carriage returns (\r).
"Line 1\nLine 2\nLine 3"
Tip: Toggle “Remove extra spaces” to collapse multiple spaces into one.
2

Choose how to replace line breaks

Pick a replacement for each line break and optionally normalize spacing.

  • Space: Most common for sentences and paragraphs.
  • Comma: Useful for CSV-like outputs or tags.
  • Custom: Type your own character(s), e.g., | or —.
  • Remove extra spaces: Collapses multiple spaces and trims ends.
Before → "A\nB\nC" | After → "A, B, C"
Live Preview shows the first 100 characters before/after as you type.

How do I remove line breaks in Word?

In Microsoft Word, press Ctrl+H to open Find and Replace, set Find what to ^p (paragraph break) and Replace with to a space or comma, then click Replace All. For a quick, private alternative, paste your text into this tool.

What's the difference between line breaks and paragraph breaks?
