Posts: 2391 Location: Coventry, RI Line Spacing May 29th, 2010 at 3:28pm Print Post Deb, Is there a way to preserve the line spacing when you post a story? I know if you want italics or bold it has to be done by hand. Thanks, Matt What do you mean, we're out of coffee! WWW IP Logged

To get the spacing requires actually adding in extra line breaks. - This is actually part of UBB security - it strips out everything but the text - BUT, try HTML to UBB. In this case, convert the document to html (in Winword it's >Save as Web Page, filtered.) However, be advised that most word processing programs add a lot of junk to their html. OR, just add extra line breaks (Search and replace should do it.) and then just undo it when you're done copying the text into the message box. The Administrator. WWW Facebook IP Logged
