Georges:
Within the last few .epubs posted (see
Reid, Mayne: The Plant Hunters v1 6 feb 2009 as well), any .html contains an odd line ending
html tag for a carriage return/line feed, namely,
&# 13; (ignore my space between the &# and 13, or else you'll see hard line breaks like the end of the below paragraph and no html code):
Code:
<!--mozToc h2 1--><h2 id="calibre_chapter_1">CHAPTER&# 13;
I</h2>&# 13;
&# 13;
<h3>One Column Less</h3>&# 13;
&# 13;
<p>NICK BURNEY, Rock City correspondent for the Las Verdes&# 13;
Sentinel, sat nervously in the battered *Ford&# 13;
*pick-up *while *his *wife, Sue,&# 13;
stopped and started as the lights along Tremont Street turned red and
green and red again. Although midnight had long since passed, Las
Verdes, the gambling metropolis situated in a shallow desert bowl so
big that the mountains seemed small in the distance, was still going
strong.</p>
While it appears that an html browser ignores them, they do cause issues when trying to convert directly to .imp from .epub, as they are treated as "hard" line breaks. A soft line breaks like the "\n" line ending is normal, but a "&# 13;" appears non-standard. BTW, Charlie's .epubs created by Calibre do not exhibit the same line-endings or issues.
Did you recently change settings on your text/html editor? Know what's causing them to be output this way?
