While the margin-top in the subsequent paragraphs style would give a space between paragraphs since there is no text indent specified, I can't see your indent and paragraph space complaint. While I prefer an indent and no space, space and no indent is a valid choice. As for removing unused or undefined code, Delete unused stylesheet selectors and cssUndefinedClasses do a decent job of cleanup.

Spoiler:

p {
    margin-bottom: 0px;
    text-indent: 0px;
    margin-top: 0px;
    text-align: justify;
}

The code I replace the body, p and p.subsq with is below:

body {
  display: block;
  font-size: 1em;
  margin: 0 0 0 0;
  padding: 0 0 0 0;
  text-indent: 0;
  widows: 1;
  orphans: 1;
}

p {
  margin: 0 0 0 0;
  padding: 0.1em 0 0 0;
  margin-block-end: 0em;
  }

p.subsq {
  text-indent: 1.25em;
}

I must thank you for bring yet another variant of Vellum stylesheets to my attention.

Edit: And just perhaps if we wish to continue this discussion, it should be moved to a new thread in a more relevant forum.

The original code is as you say. But I've edited it to put in indents and remove paragraph spaces.
