Posted on: February 20th, 2008 Removing Carriage Returns

I like the stuff available on [http://www.gutenberg.org Project Gutenberg]. Lost of old stuff that I never got a chance to take a look at in my youth. But it’s all text and that can be a problem for printing and reading electronically. At least for Word. So, removing the linebreaks and the legal mumbo jumbo can help.

To Find/Replace End of Line Carriage Returns in a Gutenberg Doc:

# Open the txt file in Word
# Find and Replace all Double Carriage Returns
## Open ‘Replace’
## In the ‘Find’ box, enter ^p^p
## In the ‘Replace’ box, enter a set of characters you know won’t appear in the work. I use ‘bulzplop’
## Click ‘Ok’
# When that’s finished running, replace all Single Carriage Returns
## Open ‘Replace’ if it isn’t open already
## In the ‘Find’ box, enter ^p
## In the ‘Replace’ box, enter one blank space
## Click ‘Ok’
# When that has finished running, replace all of your ’special’ characters with Double Carriage returns
## Open ‘Replace’ if it isn’t open already
## In the ‘Find’ box, enter bulzplop
## In the ‘Replace’ box, enter ^p^p
## Click ‘Ok’

If all goes well, at this point, you should be able to safely print and enjoy your free novel. You may, however, have some small clean up here and there.
