inserting a space (globally)

[Guest]

After copying a pdf to word, and globally removing all paragraph markers, is
there a way to insert a space where the paragraph markers existed?

Once you have removed paragraph marks, they are gone.
Replace them with a space instead of removing them.

How do I globally find/replace; I enter ^p to remove the paramarks, but I
don't know the code to tell word to insert the space. The documents are far
to long to remove and replace hundreds of paragraph marks one by one. I
realize that once removed , the para marks are gone (unless the "undo"
feature is used). So, what I am asking is how to replace the paragraph marks
with a space.

Sub testx23()
Dim rdcm As Range
Set rdcm = ActiveDocument.Range
With rdcm.Find
.Text = Chr(13)
.Replacement.Text = " "
.Execute Replace:=wdReplaceAll
End With
End Sub

1. Ctrl+H to open the Replace dialog.

2. In the "Find what" box, type ^p.

3. In the "Replace with" box, press the Spacebar once.

4. Replace All.
