Frequently Asked Questions
Why does copied text break in the middle of sentences?
Because the source used hard line breaks for visual layout rather than letting the text wrap. PDFs, plain-text emails and terminal output all do this, so the breaks come along with the copy.
How does it know which breaks to keep?
A single line break inside a block is treated as a soft wrap and removed. A blank line means a real paragraph break and is kept. That heuristic matches how almost all copied text is structured.
What about words split with a hyphen at the line end?
They are rejoined. A hyphen immediately before a line break is treated as a typographic break and removed, so "docu-\nment" becomes "document".
Can I turn lines into a comma-separated list instead?
Yes. Choose the separator option and pick a comma, semicolon or custom string. That converts a column of values into a single delimited line.
