Yeah, I guess my terminology was inaccurate. Really what I mean (in MS Word terms) is for the "before" paragraph spacing attribute to be honored after a page-break (i.e. at the start of a new chapter). KF8 seems to handle that just fine, and by the time my next book is ready, I guess it may be time ditch the old format altogether.
(Does Amazon keep stats on the number of old-format-only devices out there, in the same way Google tracks the different versions of Android?)

And won't K8 ignore those empty paras? If not given some type of element, even an nbsp?

FWIW, this is what Calibre generates for mobi7:
Code:
<p height="0pt" width="0pt" align="center">
<font size="2">*</font>
</p>
The * is actually 0xa0 (which is the ASCII version of correspond to )
I assume if you specify KF8 instead, it will generate something different, but I suspect they will try to preserve the spacing in some way. They did a passable job of faking small caps for mobi7 (not good enough for me to want to use, but still...) by capitalizing the text and setting the appropriate font sizes.
