For those looking for the command to space between paragraphs, it is in the second line of the CSS files. You have a choice of margin-top or margin-bottom. The second line starts with a "p" and that stands for paragraph. So the top and bottom "margins" of the paragraphs are actually the spacing. Figuring out CSS is like trying to find something in the yellow pages. Yew have to think very differently.

Mine is currently set up as follows.

p { text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.5em; margin-top:0em; margin-bottom: 0.5em }

As I am sure we all have a different taste in reading, yew may want yours different than mine. The example above gives one half space between paragraphs with a very small (but noticeable) indent following on the nest paragraph. I have it like this because the spacing between lines is set to 120% so the document is easier to read. So putting an entire space at 120% would leave too large of a space between paragraphs.
