weird text problem

It keeps the original formatting.

texte = I have a template that takes info in our DB and generates text files with QuarkXPress tags in them, which are then imported into a Quark file for layout. The preformatting with WC saves a considerable amount of time...so, we just finally moved from 3.x to 4.x, and an odd problem is occurring. when I import a .txt file that was generated on the new server, Quark totally ignores all line breaks, so I just get one big paragraph. If you open the file, though, the line breaks are still there. I even went so far as to test by cutting and pasting the info into a new document, and _that_ imports just fine.so, the question is--what would WC 4 be doing differently in the way it saves a file than WC 3 did, that might cause QXP to ignore line breaks when it inputs the file... a.t.tribby wickham & associates, inc ------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list
