When shown in Cool Reader, with "Enable document internal styles", the vertical space settings (margin-top) for the paragraphs are not honoured. In the "default paragraph settings", all settings are set to "-" where possible.

May I assume that this is a bug or am I overlooking some extra setting?

I'm running CR 3.0.55-32 on Archos 10.1 IT (UrukDroid 1.6.2).
I noticed this issue also, on both the latest Android and Windows version of Cool Reader. Sometimes an author will add extra space between paragraphs to indicate a change of scene without a new chapter. Cool Reader removes this space, even if "enable document internal styles" is true.

Sometimes removing extra vertical space is a good thing. Sometimes it is not. Here is an example of a space between paragraphs:

If you search for "very remarkable narrative" it occurs right before the space. Cool Reader will remove this space.

There should be some way to retain this type of space.

Note: I sent an email to the author. Will post back if he replies. Is there a better way to report issues?
