Hi ahazelwood,

The ^l is for manual line breaks. You probably need to use ^p, which is for paragraph breaks. Since you probably don't want to join all the 'real' paragraphs together, or risk having words either side of the unwanted paragraph breaks joined together, try the following sequence of four wildcard Find/Replace operations:
Find = ([!^13])([^13])([!^13])
Replace = \1 \3

Find = ([ ])[ ]{1,}
Replace = \1

Find = [^13]{2,}
Replace = ^p

Find = [ ^13]
Replace = ^p

To do a wildcard Find/Replace, you click on the Find/Replace dialog's 'More' button and choose 'use wildcards'.
