How to remove blank spaces from word file
I have office home and student 2010. I copy paste from pdf file to word. After that I have lot of spaces between text. I use the find and replace, I enter ^p in find and blank space in replace. Few times word delete all the blank spaces so that
Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy becomes XxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxYyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy but other times it delete just one. What is the solution for this problem? thanks |

Finding "^p" is a paragraph mark or return. If you don't want to merge the end word with the next line's start word then you should replace the paragraph mark with a space.

He means replace the paragraph mark with an actual space rather than leave the replace box empty. See also Replace using wildcards
