RickLegrand is on a distinguished road
Default Replace a random character with the same character

When converting PDF files it keeps lots of broken lines, like in this example:




"Two are of intragalactic origin. They derive from planets whose§
d
esignations by extension of the present star identification system are Alpha Centauri A 4, Boötes—"



As seen, most times it is a Paragraph Return (§) followed by a small caps letter.

I could find the Paragraph Mark and random small caps letters using the Wildcard ^p[a-z], but I found no way to replace the letter with the same one.

Is there a way to find the Paragraph Return+small caps letter and replace the Paragraph Mark with a white space and keeping the same small caps letter?

I am using Ms Word 2013

Thank you in advance for your assistance
Rick
