Help! I don't understand syntax etc and having problems converting from txt.
I want to convert into lrf from txt and maintain paragraph and speech breaks. I've tried converting using calibre, but have no paragraph breaks: the speech changes between characters are on the same lines.

I don't understand syntax, scripts and the html language so want something simple, very simple.

I've posted something similar in the calibre section, sorry for repeating myself.

Can anyone help please?

Don't use Calibre. Use BookDesigner. It takes some time to master it, but results are very good.

Second to it.
There are help files/tutorials created by Harry_T that might help you to master it. Eventually you will be able to do so much more with BD in a user friendly graphical interface.

Thanks, I'll download BookDesigner and have a play with it. If it's too complex I'll try converting to rtf using Word. I understand Word!
