Copy the line breaks content and paste it somewhere else. line breaks disappear.  
Do you have a solution for this?

White-space isn’t considered significant in non-code content, so the clipboard parser will normalize a sequence of whitespace to a single space.

Thanks for the reply.  
Is there any way to make sure the line breaks are preserved?

The [`whitespace`](https://prosemirror.net/docs/ref/#model.NodeSpec.whitespace) option on the node might help.
