Therefore, it can only work from what you gave it. Calibre is not an artificially intelligent program nor can it read your mind. The new paragraphs are exactly the separate lines from your PDF file. When Calibre converted your PDF, it found new-line characters, and broke up each line into a separate paragraph.So when Calibre sees new-line characters in a PDF, they are treated like end-of-line(paragraph) characters. But in a PDF, the new-line character is significant and must be set so that text doesn't continue through the margin and off the paper when printed. In an ebook, the new-line character is ephemeral and is only used when needed. Think of the end-of-line more as an end-of-paragraph character, and it will make a little more sense. The end-of-line character terminates the complete line and tells the display to move to the next line, no matter what. To continue the next character, you have to step down to the next line or go off the paper/display. The new-line is used when you've reached the edge of the paper/display. They sound like the same thing, but they differ in an important way. There are two invisible characters: the new-line and the end-of-line.The words will shift around and adjust to the size of the display-exactly the way text on a web page moves around when you change the window size. This is good for printing, lousy for ebook files. So it is formatted exactly the way it would appear as printed. It is meant to be a digital fax file, so that the text can be printed onto a specific-size paper. Several things went wrong with your conversion: Calibre is a great program for what it does, but for professional level creation of ebooks, it does fall a little short in some areas. It's the nature of the beast…įirst of all, don't panic.
And other readers, forgive me if below gets a tad technical.
