How the Add Line Breaks Tool Works

This tool takes broken text (text without proper paragraph breaks) and tries to format that text into something a bit more readable. It finds a single newline and transforms that into a double newline so that we now have a properly spaced paragraph.

If you've ever copied and pasted some content from a word doc into your email software, blog post, or wherever and it messed up the paragraphs in your content - you can use this tool to quickly insert line breaks into the content. It happens a lot when pasting content from Microsoft Word into some other place.
