Line breaks in phpStorm are removed

I am using phpStorm to edit some files. They appear fine in phpStorm, but when i open them in notepad everything is on one line. So for example this:

<?php
include('hello.php');
print 'test';
?>

Will become :

<?phpinclude('hello.php');print 'test';?>

Obviously, this causes error. Why is this happening and how can i restore my files?

Solution

  • I have found a solution for this. The line breaks were not in windows format. In phpStorm, this was solved like this:

    1. Select a file or directory in the Project tool window.

    2. Choose File | Line Separators on the main menu, and then select the desired line ending style from the sub-menu.
