@pimoore LMAO— re: "horrible": I was being kind. :) It is horrible indeed. And I'm not doing any of that "two spaces for a line-break" business at all! But that's okay: Drafts is where most of the work happens; sometimes the writing happens longhand in Concepts or Muse before transcribing for further editing. I don't spend a great deal of time previewing text in Drafts, but I did create my own Markdown template/interpreter that treats poems as preformatted text. And yes, for the shorter batches of work or documents I've had to send out, Pages has been covered the last part of the process (tidying up formatting).

I'll be keeping an eye on what you discover re: people using Pages for manuscripts...
