I did a search, which didn't really work, so I figured I'd ask here. I tried cutting and pasting my PS from word into word-pad, and then cut and paste into the AACOMAS text box. It seemed to work alright except for the fact that it refuses to believe I can actually type in paragraph form. There aren't even any spaces between paragraphs or any indentations. Has anyone else encountered this and know how to solve the problem? I guess I should be happy that it recognizes punctuation, or it'd all be one run-on sentence. Thanks in advance.
