I imported a Mac Pages iPub document for the purpose of making it recognize my TOC. Worked like a charm. Thanks to the programmers.

However, it added extra paragraph marks to the Book View. HTML example follows:

<p class="s6">Embarked onboard ship .... but friends must part.</p>

<p class="s6">The ship left the wharf .... for the comfort of all.</p>

In the Book View there are two paragraph marks, 4 spaces, and one more paragraph mark between the text within the <p>....<\p> pairs. In the original there was a single paragraph mark.

An explanation or just a fix would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

Blank lines in Code View don't count. The exist only for Human coders.
Only lines with tags , count. Even then many devices ignore repetitive tag pairs shown below.


<p> </p> is a blank line (really a line with a single space)

Imho, it is better to set a top or Bottom Margin to gain normal paragraph spacing.
You can adjust the 'gap' from a single CSS entry
