There are 2 known issues with this formatter.

1.)

If you are using a URL with a space in it then it CAN possibly be split and formatted onto two different lines. Please proof read and verify your entire document after formatting. Double check the URL's. It is your responsibility to correct broken links. This is only an issue if your URL has a space in it.

2.)

When you click the format button the program will attempt to retain all of your paragraphs. However, the only way to recognize paragraphs is by the blank line that separates them. This works fine as long as you place a blank line between all paragraphs.

However, look at the following 3 signature lines:

These lines are formatted just as I want them. The problem is that the formatter isn't going to understand to keep them on different lines because there are no blank lines between them. As far as the formatter knows they all belong to the same paragraph and can be put on one line if they fit. After formatting, the 3 lines are going to look like:

This is obviously not what I wanted but the formatter has no way of knowing that. It knows to keep paragraphs ONLY when there is a blank line separating them.

Suggested fix:

You need to always, always proof read / edit your finished document and fix this if it occurs.

If you are working on a document that you are going to format several times and don't want to have to fix this each time then double space the lines, temporarily. The formatter will then know to keep them that way and you only need to fix it once, during your final edit.

For example:

Now the formatter understands that these lines are to be kept separate. When you do your final edit then you can remove the blank lines.
