I am unable to add text to content types Basic Page or Article that retain indentation at the paragraph heads. I am also unable to create text that retains paragraph breaks. Text created by a Lipsum generator also loose paragraph breaks and indentation. Filtered and Full HTML produce the same results.

Support Forum responses indicate that many individuals believe that the internet in general and Frameworks in specific are not designed to support these functions.

Motivation: to faithfully reproduce text and short stories created by published authors, writing in the English language, with their permission of course.

Is there a fix?

First-line indentation is not a common feature of the web, and is not supported by all browsers. You can add this paragraph styling to style.css underneath the normal paragraph CSS

p:first-line {margin-left: 3em;}

Breaks can still be made by adding one or two <br> tags where needed.
