When I export to a generic text file using “no line breaks”, I still see line breaks in the file when I edit it with my word processor. What is happening?
In v5.14 and higher, exporting to a generic text file using “no line breaks” removes extra spaces and double line feeds in the directions. So you are probably using v5.13 or earlier. In versions prior to v5.14, the “no line breaks” option meant NYC did not add any line breaks to the file during the export. If the file was imported with line breaks, or if you added them yourself in the NYC recipe directions, you may see line breaks in your exported file. To remove line breaks regardless of how they got there, open the recipe in NYC’s edit mode, press Directions…, and press the Format button, which removes line breaks in the NYC recipe. Then press OK and save the recipe. Now when you export to generic text format, the line breaks will be gone.
