Hi Lissi,
I'm really sorry you had to get such a rude awakening on this spacing issue. I 
think the system is set up to handle average-style fiction and nonfiction books 
where spacing beyond proper paragraphing isn't really that important. With 
books of poetry and books like you're working on right now, it's kind of a 
shame that the formatting gets messed up if the OCR actually manages to 
preserve it. This problem hasn't bothered me that much because I'm oblivious to 
formatting, even when I'm reading braille. But I certainly think that this 
would make a much *much* bigger difference to readers with sight than the 
difference between em-dash and double dash.
Kellie
