i want to transfere the content of the file to the jtextfield as it is in the file (with Enters between lines)

A JTextField is a single line text component; i.e. it can't display more than one
line of text. Use a JTextArea instead.

By the way, this method is a handy way to read data in a text component: Read method

I fell into that trap once: that read method installs a new Document in the
component. If you had just pooped up your JTextComponent with all sorts
of listeners and undoable managers etc. they aren't carried over to the new
Document, i.e. you have to do that yourself after the read has finished.

Listen to the first post by JosAH. Change the code in the imports from:

import javax.swing.JTextField;

to:

import javax.swing.JTextArea;

and change the variable declaration to:

jtextarea = new JTextArea("");

That should do the trick.
