You can search and replace Returns in Pages for Mac. Press Command-F to start, then in the top box write a forward slash and the lowercase letter n. Then in the second box, write something replace it with. Normally I’ll do this to remove multiple returns in a row, so I’ll search for forward slash n, forward slash n, and so on. The forward slash tells Pages you’re searching for a control character, and n is short for new line.
