Inserting line breaks from Text File
I have a script that uses an external text file to populate different copy points into an After Effects composition. The client I have is very specific about where the line breaks in the copy should be. I want to avoid having to go into each of the newly generated comps and manually insert the line breaks. Is there a way for me to add a special character into my text file that after effects can interpret as a line break through an expression?
Thanks for the help!

You could do something like this to replace “*” characters with line breaks:
value.replace(/\*/g,”\r”)
