Exclamation EPUB to MOBI/AZW3 loses formatting

I'm trying to convert an epub file into something I can read on my kindle, but when I run it through Calibre it inserts a line between every paragraph and loses the paragraph indents. I've seen this happen with other epubs and never figured out how to fix it. Does anyone know how to convert it while saving the formatting?

It would help if we had more info on the conversion. The sticky post at the top of this sub-forum How to ask a question about conversion problems has info on what is needed for us to help.

Under Conversion settings ==> Look and feel you have probably enabled "insert blank line between paragraphs".
