I generally do proofing and formatting corrections in RTF, but have run into a snag recently in HTM-to-RTF. I'm hoping one of the resident geniuses can sort me out.

It boils down to this: converting from HTM to RTF, an extra line is added between paragraphs.

Code:

<p>some text.</p>
<p>some more text. </p>

yields:
some text.

some more text.

instead of:
some text.
some more text.

I checked off the "Remove spacing between paragraphs" box in the Conversion dialog, but that didn't make a darn bit of difference one way or another.

I have that perfectly dangerous level of computer savvy: not enough to achieve what I want to, but just enough to make real hash of things. Any help here would be appreciated.
