transformed locally — nothing leaves your browser

Clean up text copied from PDFs and emails where every line ends in a hard break: join lines with spaces, remove breaks entirely, or keep paragraph gaps.

How it works

  1. Paste your fragmented text (e.g., from a PDF) into the tool.
  2. Select whether to replace breaks with spaces, remove them entirely, or preserve paragraphs.
  3. Copy the clean, continuous text block.

Frequently asked questions

Why does PDF text paste so badly?

PDFs store visual lines, not logical paragraphs, so each visual line ends with a break that becomes a hard return on paste.

Which mode for PDF cleanup?

"Keep paragraphs" — it heals mid-paragraph breaks while preserving real paragraph boundaries.

Does it touch anything else?

No — only line breaks (and the surrounding whitespace) are modified.
