If you spend a lot of time copying text from PDFs into Word like me, I hope this tip might be useful! If the PDF ends up broken up over lots of lines, there's no need to fix it manually. Just go to find and replace, type ^p into find, and one space into replace. Pics below :)
Text here from @StVanderputten 's excellent Dark Age Nunneries
@alicehicklin Have you tried all the other things you can do with find and replace? Formatting, for example
You can also so this with line breaks if ^p doesn't work, just use ^l instead
@alicehicklin Part 2: I use Word for Mac; when I copy and paste I’m prompted (by a tiny clipboard-icon button) to select from several options and I choose “match destination formatting” and bingo, there it is. No breaks.
@alicehicklin Useful tip. Thanks. My biggest frustration is the opposite when all the paragraph returns disappear and you have a solid block of text!
