Here's something that works for MS Word files, but it doesn't work for Text files. if you copy a block of text from a pdf and paste into a Word doc, and it pastes as one word per line, you can do the following:
1. select the pasted text in the Word doc.
2. use the Replace function, select replace all, ^p with ^s
This will convert one word per line back to a normal text paragraph.
I still don't know what I did to cause spaces to be interpreted as line returns by default when copying pdf text to Word, text, or Excel files. This did not happen in the past. How annoying.
