A blank line won't show up in the DAISY books due to the way HTML/XXML
works. All paragraphs have a blank line between them in the DAISY books
whether one was there or not in the RTF file. At least that's the way they
show up in Internet Explorer. Can't say whether or not they look like that
in FireFox.
If you want to add something to show the scene change, then I'd suggest
using three asterisks

I've seen a number of books I've scanned use this approach to denote a scene
change.

Hi,
In the books I have seen, a blank line is left to indicate a scene change.
In some cases I have also seen a row of asterisks. However, a blank line
seems to be more commonly used.

Hi all,
My wife has come across something that I don't know how to advise her.
In Anne Perry's Tathea when the scene changes there is a symbol. FineReader
of course doesn't include it when OCR is done.
My wife is wanting to know how to handle this. Should she include anything
in the text to indicate the scene change or should she leave just a blank
line?
Thanks.
