when i try to extract all Text nodes with XPath (//text()), I get line
breaks also as Text nodes, which is not expected.

That is what your XPath expression asks for though.

But when I do the same thing without pretty-printed, everything in one line

Try this XPath expression instead

//text/text()

Is there an easy way of making Builder ignore line breaks.

See nu.xom.samples.NormalizingFactory.
