- Check "Regular Expression"
- Find: \n+
- Replace: \n
- "Replace All"

Or if you can't remember, copy 2 linefeeds into the Find field, 1 linefeed into the Replace field, and do "Replace All" until no more matches are found.

PS: if there also is random space in the 'blank' lines, replace the "Find" expression with \n\s*\n
