What is a line break and why remove it?
A line break is a character that moves text to a new line, commonly represented as \n or \r\n in digital text.
Line breaks are useful for formatting paragraphs, but they can cause issues when copying text from PDFs, websites, or documents.
In many cases, copied text contains unnecessary line breaks that disrupt readability and formatting.
Removing line breaks helps convert fragmented text into a clean, continuous paragraph.
This is especially useful for editing, publishing, or preparing content for web and SEO purposes.
