Thanks.

Diap is certainly the knowledgeable one around here about that stuff...and BetterRed...they will be able to answer how to customize for you.


In the meantime, there are a couple of built-in Sigil functions you can try. These are just for appearance while editing in code view as none of this styling affects how the ePub will display in readers/apps.


1) Right click anywhere in code view and select 'Mend and Prettify all HTML files'. That puts a decent amount of space between the paragraphs...it also fixes some very basic html errors.


2) There is a toggle to turn on/off word wrapping (so the words go off screen to the right)...I'm pretty sure it's in the view menu???
