When to use each option

Collapse multiple spaces: turns runs of spaces and tabs into a single space.
Trim lines: removes spaces at the start and end of every line.
Remove empty lines or limit blank lines to one: tidy up spacing between paragraphs.
Line breaks: text copied from PDFs often has a hard break at the end of every line. “Join lines, keep paragraphs” rebuilds proper paragraphs, while “Replace with a space” makes one continuous block.

All changes are applied in the order shown above and the result updates as you type.

How do I remove line breaks from text?

Set “Line breaks” to “Replace with a space” (one block) or “Join lines, keep paragraphs” (to keep paragraph gaps).

How do I remove double spaces?

Keep “Collapse multiple spaces into one” ticked. It also handles tabs and non-breaking spaces.

Why does text copied from a PDF have odd breaks?

PDFs store text as positioned lines, so each visual line becomes a hard line break when copied. Joining lines fixes it.
