Unix uses 0xA for a newline character. Windows uses a combination of two characters: 0xD 0xA. 0xD is the carriage return character. ^M happens to be the way vim displays 0xD (0x0D = 13, M is the 13th letter in the English alphabet). You can remove all the ^M characters by running the following: :%s/^M//g … Read more
dos2unix is a commandline utility that will do this, or :%s/^M//g will if you use Ctrl–v Ctrl–m to input the ^M, or you can :set ff=unix and Vim will do it for you. There is documentation on the fileformat setting, and the Vim wiki has a comprehensive page on line ending conversions. Alternately, if you … Read more
If you are using fpdf, in order to be able to use line breaks you will need to use a multi-line text cell as described here. If you use this, then line breaks in your text should be interpreted and converted correctly. Just a quick example: $pdf->Multicell(0,2,”This is a multi-line text string\nNew line\nNew line”); Here, … Read more

\n is a line feed (LF) character, character code 10. \r is a carriage return (CR) character, character code 13. What they do differs from system to system. On Windows, for instance, lines in text files are terminated using CR followed immediately by LF (e.g., CRLF). On Unix systems and their derivatives, only LF is … Read more

These are two characters: \r is carriage return; \n is line feed. Two characters combined represent a new line on Windows. Whereas on Linux, \n represents new line.
