How can I do a ‘hard return’ to set the 'line character limit' on emails?

Does anyone know how to set the character limit per line when you send out emails?

I’ve been trying to do this with Microsoft Word using ‘word wrap’, margins and indents but it only does ‘soft returns’. (So when I copy and paste the text onto notepad, it just comes up in one long line).

Is there a way of automating hard returns for say, once it reaches 70 characters or thereabouts per line?

 

I've oftened wondered about this myself. I HATE when Word does that.

By the way, here's a free online tool I found real quick...I'm sure there are others and probably even
better ones, But hey, it works! lol
