Have you tried running the "Tools | AutoCorrect..." command in your document? It can automatically remove extra spaces from document text. |

What I need is removal of unnecessary paragraph marks at the end of every line. I guess I will just have to do it manually.

There is a "Join paragraphs" command in Atlantis. It can remove unwanted paragraph end marks (in OCR-ed documents, for example).
Just select a text fragment that should be converted into one paragraph, and press Ctrl+Shift+U. If text fragments representing logical paragraphs, are separated with blank paragraphs (see attached "Join pars (before).rtf"), you can select entire document (press Ctrl+A), then execute the "Join paragraphs" command (press Ctrl+Shift+U). You would get something like the attached "Join pars (after).rtf". |

It does the job exactly as needed. Thanks again.

One thing that might be added to ebook help is that if you want to generate epub sections, you need to insert next page section breaks between the parts you want to be sections of the epub. Continuous won't do. Might also suggest making these breaks at each chapter, since this is good practice in making easily useable epubs.
Otherwise quite pleased with how it works with the test I made of creating simple epub from plain text. Really didn't need to do much in Sigil at all. |

There are no sections in EPUB or XHTML. As I understand, you mean "flow breaks".
Flow breaks are created by dividing the eBook contents into separate HTML files. If you have 10 HTMLs in your EPUB package, there will be 9 flow breaks (or hard page breaks) in your eBook (when viewed in eReaders). The rule is very simple: Atlantis creates as many flow breaks in EPUB as hard page breaks in the source document. Continuous section breaks do not create page breaks, otherwise they would not be named "continuous". There are multiple ways to create hard page breaks in a source document: 1. (Hard/manual) page breaks can be created by pressing Ctrl+Enter (inserts a manual page break symbol), or by inserting non-continuous section breaks (the "Insert | Break | Section Break" menu). 2. When you have a "zoomed to fit page" image in your document, Atlantis also implicitly adds page breaks before and/or after it. Double-click a picture in your document to toggle the "zoom to fit page" option for this picture. 3. You can also create a page break before a paragraph by enabling the "Page break before" attribute on the "Line & Page Breaks" tab of the "Format | Paragraph..." dialog for this paragraph. Quite often this attribute is enabled in the "Heading 1" style. In this way, each chapter automatically starts at a new page. By the way, this method is preferable over the "Ctrl+Enter" method – please click the below links for details: http://atlantiswordprocessor.blogspo...racefully.html http://atlantiswordprocessor.blogspo...cefully-2.html |

1. If your source document contains chapters larger than 300 KB (when saved as XHTML), Atlantis automatically creates additional page breaks within such chapters in order to produce smaller XHTMLs. 2. If your source document contains footnotes and/or endnotes, Atlantis puts them into a separate HTML file. As a result, there is a page break before notes when viewed in eReaders. |

There is a name sort as metadata in Sigil that is not in AWP.
Some things AWP does, like seeming to add a carriage return when I apply a heading, may be matters of configuration. AWP sees it as yet another paragraph, I think. For Sigil, it is just a tag...a different in point of view I may need to get used to. Last edited by mrmikel; 05-20-2013 at 02:13 PM. |

Another thing I could not get to transfer from the style to the ePub is keeping two paragraphs together so that a heading wouldn't be left at the end of a page all by itself.

Please enable the "View | Special Symbols" mode. When this mode is on, you could see paragraph end marks (pilcrow symbols) terminating each paragraph in your document. Quote:

Are you sure that all major eReaders support the "avoid" value of the "page-break-after" CSS property? |
