About this tool
A tiny but genuinely useful cleanup step. Most competing tools either delete every newline (killing paragraphs) or keep every one (defeating the purpose). This one splits on blank lines first, then joins wrapped lines inside each paragraph.
FAQ
- Why does PDF text have random line breaks?
- PDFs store text as visually-positioned lines. When you copy, each visual line becomes a real line break — even in the middle of sentences. This tool joins those without gluing paragraphs together.
- Will it merge my paragraphs?
- By default it keeps blank lines as paragraph breaks. Toggle 'Keep paragraphs' off if you want a single line of text.
- Does it handle Windows and Mac line endings?
- Yes — CRLF, LF, and lone CR are all handled.
- Can I also collapse extra spaces?
- Yes. Turn on 'Collapse spaces' to squash runs of whitespace into single spaces.
- Is the text uploaded anywhere?
- No. All processing runs locally in your browser.
