# Removing Line Breaks

Use the AutoFormat feature to remove line breaks that occur within sentences. Unwanted line breaks can occur when you copy text from another source and paste it into a text document.

This AutoFormat feature only works on text that is formatted with the "Default" paragraph style.

3. Click \<emph\>OK\</emph\>.

4. Select the text containing the line breaks that you want to remove.

5. In the \<emph\>Apply Style \</emph\>box on the \<emph\>Formatting\</emph\> bar, choose \<emph\>Default\</emph\>.

6. Choose Tools - AutoCorrect - Apply.
