LINE JOINING WITH MULTIPLE PARAGRAPHS
-
Hi,
I found quite some info on line join command “Ctrl+J”. However, i need help on the following.I had copied a large amount text from another website and when pasted in N++ the lines are wrapped in the wrong place for all paras and also the line length in only about 45-50 chars long.
When I do "Ctrl+J for line join, that joins “all the text in all paragraphs” into one big para with no space or line breaks or any other differentiation. I want the paragraphs to remain as is but the lines in individual paragraphs joined to form 80 char long lines.
I intend to then copy that text into word and later make a PDF from work to save it as a nice document.
Kindly provide necessary inputs.

Your request is too vague for me (and I suspect most other forum-goers) to give you much help. Please follow this template for search/replace questions and show us examples of how you would like to transform your file.

Notepad++ can provide some limited help here.
I want the paragraphs to remain as is
Select each “paragraph” individually before issuing the Ctrl+j.
In case this is not clear: select, Ctrl+j, select, Ctrl+j, etc.the lines in individual paragraphs joined to form 80 char long lines.
Simplest way: Size your Notepad++ window so that it is approximately 80 characters wide when you look at your data. Select the paragraph or paragraphs to affect and then issue the split lines command (or Ctrl+i).
