Article Submission Problem

Post by LindaM »

I've just deleted an older article, then tried to submit an updated version. The article contains several recipes and, hard as I try, they just won't format correctly in the sample section. The ingredients keep skipping lines and double-spacing in some areas and not others. Don't know what to make of it and haven't seen this problem before. Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,
Linda

If you are copying from a word doc, maybe try first copying to a code/format-free txt. Sometimes the formatting in Word can cause glitches in other programs and that may be what you're experiencing here.

So the problem is just spacing?

I've had that before. I just manually fix it so that it looks the same in the text box as it does in the Word document.

Thanks for the advice. I seemed to have solved the problem by creating a new copy of the article. The issue may have been with my computer....
