I'm not finding a way to fix sentence breaks where Premiere has decided something shuold be in a new paragraph, even though it's part of the previous. Is there not a way to merge a sentence with the previous paragraph? I hate when a sentence is broken out like this...

 

Initually there was a period and the new line started with a capital letter, but I removed the period and lower cased the next word. But there doesn't seem to be a way to merge it back to the paragraph above.

Hi @DaveChap,

Try this: Select the captions and click the Merge Captions button at the top of the Text window. Does that work for you? Let us know.

 

Thanks,

Thanks! That was it. I had to go to the source tab at the bottom left instead of the sequence tab for the transcript.
