Useful Tools & Suggestions:

If you’re sorting paragraphs, Enumerate Paragraphs is a smart step beforehand it helps keep track of the original order in case you need to restore it later. After sorting, Normalize Text Spacing can clean up inconsistent line breaks or extra gaps, so the final output reads smoothly. It’s a helpful setup for organizing long-form content, cleaning drafts, or reshuffling structured text.
