Is it private?
Yes. Remove Line Breaks runs entirely in your web browser. What you type is never sent to Nolo or anyone else, and the page cannot send it anywhere: its security policy only allows it to talk to nolotools.com, which has no place to receive data. Nothing is stored either: close the page and it is gone. How Nolo works.
Questions and answers
Is my text uploaded?
No. Everything happens in your browser and nothing is sent or stored.
Why does text copied from a PDF have line breaks?
PDFs store each line of a page separately, so copying gives a hard break at the end of every line. This tool joins those lines back into sentences.
What does "Keep paragraphs" do?
Single line breaks are joined with a space, but blank lines between paragraphs are kept, so the text still has its paragraphs.
What does "Rejoin hyphenated words" do?
If a word was split with a hyphen at the end of a line ("to-" then "gether"), the hyphen and break are removed. It only joins when the next line starts with a lower-case letter, so names like "Jean-\nPaul" are left alone.
