Hi Guys,

I am taking input from an XMl or Txt file and loading inside a textField. Now whenever there is start of New paragraph then instead of starting it from the very next line(as in the txt file) Flash Text Field leaves 1 line empty and starts from the 2nd line.

Example - readthis.txt

```auto
this is text file text
                   This is 2nd para

```

here is how it is in the textField inside Flash

```auto
this is text file text

                   This is 2nd para

```

Is this the way it works or is there any fix?

Thanks!
