Hi E.,
The one I have is a RTF file but is large print. There are separations in
the middle of lines but they don't have any line break signs or anything. I
just space back so they will be spaced right. Also, there are oodles of
spaces within words such as statistics might be sta tistics, things like
that.

Do you mean by "separated" that the word is separated by a line break. I
have been running into this a lot with recent validations. As it also
happens, these are .txt files.
