Default remove manual line breaks at the end of each line of txt

I'm importing text from PDF w/out having Acrobat. Word has inserted a manual
page break at the end of each line. I'd like to remove those w/out having to
do it "by hand." Any ideas out there?

Use Find and Replace (Ctrl + H). Find what: ^p, Replace with: (Space) (tap
the space bar).

Hi Kimber,

Choose Edit | Replace...
Type ^m in the Find box, and leave the Replace box blank.

Good luck,
Cooz
