I have a document that has line breaks well before the end of each page. Consequently, in .rtf its readable but when converting to .epbub or .mobi the lines get jumbled so the line runs to the end of the screen, finishes with 4 or 5 words on the next line, and then begins a new line.

some sample text from the document:

"decades and began traveling in Europe, a continent he’d never
seen. In the past year he had visited France, Holland, and most
recently Italy. They were package tours, traveling in the company
of strangers, riding by bus through the countryside, each
meal and museum and hotel prearranged. He was gone for
two, three, sometimes four weeks at a time. When he was away
Ruma did not hear from him. Each time, she kept the printout
of his flight information behind a magnet on the door of the
refrigerator, and on the days he was scheduled to fly she
watched the news, to make sure there hadn’t been a plane crash"

The obvious way to remedy this is to simply remove the line break from the end of each line, but thats some seriously time consuming work. Is there a way for calibre to do this?
