Reading this now in Pliny, I see what must have been an m-dash (a favourite punctuation of mine) is rendered as a question mark. Last line of day 5.

There may be other instances, I didn't go all through the entry.

Sorry, not there, but in the second last line of day 4.

Ah silly me, it's not an edited Entry, so I've gone in and edited it myself. Looks OK now.

I was just about to say, but you got there first.

*bless*

Yeah, that old m-dash thing....

There is something else I'd like to correct. Is there a GuideML tag for a line break that doesn't insert an extra blank line in Pliny? Where I have quoted verses, I have separated the lines with < BR / > and this advances the line not once but doubly. Can't find it in GuideML Clinic ...

Verses look all wrong when double-spaced.

Strangely, it looks right (i.e. single-spaced) in Preview, but not in normal view.

Take out the carriage return (white space) - and also try writing the
< br / > in lower case

The new system often seems to recognise carriage returns/white space as line breaks without the need to make them.

I hope this helps
