CleanTextly's Remove Line Breaks tool lets you remove line breaks from text online instantly, joining separate lines into one continuous paragraph. Paste in text copied from a PDF, a Word document, or anywhere else lines got split up, and every line break — LF, CRLF, or CR, however many in a row — is replaced with a single space as you type. This line break remover never joins words together without a space, and it never touches ordinary spacing elsewhere in your text.
Features
Removes Every Line Break Style
Unix (LF), Windows (CRLF), and old Mac (CR) line breaks are all detected and removed correctly, even when mixed in the same text.
Joins Lines Without Merging Words
Each removed line break becomes a single space, so "Hello" and "World" on separate lines always come out as "Hello World", never "HelloWorld".
No Accidental Double Spaces
Spaces or tabs sitting right next to a line break are absorbed into that same single space, instead of leaving extra spacing behind.
Leaves Ordinary Spacing Alone
This tool only removes new lines — spaces and tabs that aren't next to a line break are left exactly as you typed them.
100% Private
Everything runs locally in your browser. Your text is never uploaded, logged, or stored anywhere.

Frequently Asked Questions
A line break is the invisible character that starts a new line — written as LF, CRLF, or CR depending on the operating system that created the text.
Blank lines are made of consecutive line breaks, and this tool removes all of them the same way — a run of one or more line breaks, blank lines included, always collapses to a single space rather than leaving extra gaps.
No. Every removed line break is replaced with a space, so words that were on separate lines always end up separated by exactly one space, never joined directly together.
No. This tool only removes line breaks. Ordinary spaces and tabs that aren't sitting next to a line break are left completely untouched — for cleaning up extra spaces elsewhere in your text, use the Remove Extra Spaces tool instead.
Yes. Text copied from documents, PDFs, and word processors often carries line breaks in the middle of paragraphs, and this tool joins them back into flowing text right in your browser.
Yes. This tool, like every other tool on CleanTextly, is completely free to use with no sign-up required.
