Default Re: Utility to format ebook txt to proper width?

I was excited when I saw this post, but I'm still having problems with word wrapping.
When I use the program and set the line to 12, I get this when looking at it with notepad:

However, on the player I see:

The .... are place holders for blank spaces. I had to put them in there so the forum would show the line indent.

Is it me that's retarded or is it my player?
It's a 1.5 screen. A line length of 16 should work for that size and that is how many the player is showing, however I was using 12.
It's a nano clone

My program settings were:
1: Strip __ lines from beginning of file : 0
2: Indent paragraphs __ spaces : 4
3: Left margin right justified __ spaces : 0
4: Characters per line __ : 12
5: Strip double spaces between sentences : YES
7: Wipe TEMP.TXT __ times : 0
8: Watch the wiping process on screen? : NO

When I was searching for a solution to formatting before, this is the same result I got when trying a bunch of different text editors and formats. My conclusion was that the player just won't recognize line breaks.
Has anyone else tried it with that size screen or that firmware?
