I assume you want to ditch this page break char. First you need to identify it, then you just sub it out. Here is a snippet to identify the chars in a string according to their octal escape code. Just cut and paste a snippet of your text that includes the escape char or similar to get a sample of it into a variable. In the example you can see the two "\n" chars - they are \012 in octal. Anyway once you identify the char code for this errant control char just stick it in the regex and it should be fixed.

$text = "Hello\nWorld\n";
for (split//,$text) {
   printf "\%03o\n", ord $_;
}

$text =~ s/\012/\n\n\n/;
print $text;
