⭐ Remove Line Breaks and Convert Multiline Text to One Line
This free multiline text to single line converter removes line breaks by joining separate text lines into one. Choose a space, comma, semicolon, pipe, tab, no separator, or a custom string. Use it to prepare a list for a spreadsheet cell, command, query, script, or form field. Conversion happens locally in your browser.
⭐ What it does
When you paste or upload text that spans several lines, this tool removes the line breaks and merges the lines into one. Choose what appears between the joined lines — a space, comma, semicolon, pipe, tab, nothing at all, or any custom string.
🔎 How to use
- Paste your multiline text into the Input text field, or click Upload file to load a
.txt or .csv file.
- Choose a Separator from the dropdown. Select Custom... to type your own separator string.
- Enable Trim whitespace per line to remove leading and trailing spaces from each line before joining (recommended).
- Enable Skip empty lines to ignore blank lines in the input.
- The output updates automatically as you type or change the options.
- Click Copy to copy the one-line result, or use Download as to save it as a TXT or CSV file.
🔎 Example
Input (3 lines):
apple
banana
cherry
With Comma separator, output becomes:
apple, banana, cherry
With Pipe separator:
apple|banana|cherry
With None separator:
applebananacherry
⚙️ Available separators
- Space — joins lines with a single space (default)
- Comma (, ) — joins with a comma and space; useful for CSV-style lists
- Semicolon (; ) — joins with a semicolon and space
- Pipe (|) — joins with a pipe character; common in database and CLI output
- Tab — joins with a tab character; useful for TSV-style output
- None — concatenates lines directly without any character between them
- Custom — type any string as separator, for example
- , ::, or →
⚙️ Options
- Trim whitespace per line — removes spaces and tabs at the start and end of each line before joining. Enabled by default.
- Skip empty lines — blank lines in the input are ignored and not included in the output. Enabled by default.
⚠️ Notes
- All processing happens entirely in your browser — your data is never sent to a server.
- Both Unix (
LF) and Windows (CRLF) line endings are handled correctly.
- The output is a single line. Very large inputs may take longer to process depending on your device and browser.
- A
.csv upload is read as text, line by line; this tool does not parse or reformat individual CSV fields.
