Its certainly not in an image format.
The original is a lit. So its difficult to see what the line breaks are exactly.

But I must be doing something wrong.
Even if I convert the lit to txt.
Then process the txt, I can't get the unwrap heuristic to do anything useful.

I can effect the breaks by tweaking the "txt input" settings.
But I can't seem to get the "heuristic unwrap" to do anything.

I'm a little confused by the "line unwrap factor".
I find the description unenlightening..
If you want to unwrap more lines do you decrease or increase the unwrap factor.

If 99% of the lines in the file are the same length.
Does that mean I need to set the unwrap factor to .01 to effect them?

I've tried both 0 and 1 as the unwrap factor and neither seems to have any effect whatsoever.
