Hi,
You can use an expression like this

CASE
WHEN "CRLFPOS1" = 0 THEN "TEXT_TOP"
WHEN "CRLFPOS1" > 0 AND "CRLFPOS2" = 0
THEN
substr("TEXT_TOP",1,"CRLFPOS1"-1)||'\n'||substr("TEXT_TOP","CRLFPOS1"+1,length("TEXT_TOP")-"CRLFPOS1"+1)
WHEN "CRLFPOS1" > 0 AND "CRLFPOS2" > 0
THEN
substr("TEXT_TOP",1,"CRLFPOS1"-1)||'\n'||substr("TEXT_TOP","CRLFPOS1"+1,"CRLFPOS2"-"CRLFPOS1")||'\n'||substr("TEXT_TOP","CRLFPOS2"+1,length("TEXT_TOP")-"CRLFPOS2"+1)
END

Where CRLFPOS1 and 2 are two integer fields that i have in my layer.

Good luck and I'm sorry for answer late!!
