@Mike,
I think we are at cross-purposes here. You appear to be detailing how to correctly reconstruct paragraphs from a file where every line has an end-of-paragraph. My original contribution was about trying to retain the extra whitespace between "scenes", in RTF to EPUB conversions, whilst removing extra whitespace between standard paragraphs, because RTF to EPUB currently removes blank lines.

By the way, this doesn't need to be a problem in MSWord, as long as you switch on the 'Wildcards' option in Find/Replace. Using your example Step 3, this should replace 2 or more end-of-paras with the pipe char:
Code:
Find: ^13{2,} (with the Wildcards box checked)
Replace: |
