[bksvol-discuss] Re: line breaks in Inkspell by Cornelia Funke

I submitted this book.  I really am not sure what you
are talking about.  On my screen there isn't a problem
with breaks or short spacing.  Each paragraph is
separated with a space instead of indenting...Is that
a problem?  The majority of books that I have
downloaded has this format...I submitted it in
RTF...Should I be doing something differently???
