Okay, I guess I should have said that it may not keep the formatting of the poetry if it uses different indentations and that sort of thing, but will at least keep each line separate if it was recognized properly.
I remember that Kipling book. It was too bad that much of that work was apparently for naught..

I spent months, literally, validating The Complete Poetry of Rudyard Kipling, working hard to preserve the formatting of the poetry, only to find out that it is not retained in the final product. In previous years, not knowing that and using tabs instead of resetting the margins for lines, I did some Chinese poetry for someone. No idea how that now looks. Fortunately, in these poems, as long as the lines of the poetry are separate, it should be o.k. Unlike some of the Kipling poems and some other poems I've read, like some of those I started to do for Reflections on a Gift of Watermelon Pickle... And Other Modern Verse, I don't think the actual shape of the poems in 101 Famous Poems matters.

I have scanned books with some poetry, and they have come out okay.
