But, if you are stripping the HTML tags out, then it will be only how the device is handling the line breaks. How are you doing that? If you edit the comments in calibre through the metadata editor, it will always save it as HTML, not plain text. |
Yes, I looked it up before this post, and I didn't pay attention to that thread since I don't know how to do the following instruction.

I set a plugboard to anyformat:KOBO = ([{comments}] -> comments) and then ran a "update cached metadata." It didn't remove the extra breaks though. Did I do it wrong?  |
I don't understand the meaning FFF and plugboard, and then he said "I changed it to KOBOTOUCHEXTENDED", have no idea what it means.
And basically according to your reply, this is the problem Kobo device, Kobo doesn't handle it properly like Calibre Comments section.

UPDATE:
I found a plugin called `Clean Comments`, it is not perfect, but it is usable, at least I tried it for a book's Comments section, the space between in a list is gone, the blank lines between paragraphs become only one blank line.
