BeerSmith Recipe posting right

I am trying to post a recipe from BeerSmith and when I paste it into the forum section it is not keeping the formatting for the ingredients section.
I copied out of BeerSmith onto notepad on my desktop and select all and copy, paste in a new thread.
I used the plain txt report style and the notepad font is Lucida Console.
It also looked like the instruction section on the bottom of the report was running off the screen.
I have posted a recipe before and it worked fine.


@FIT re: pumkin ale- one moment please. :p

I export the file to a .txt file, then copy and paste from there.

Well that's what I did, I think, moved it to notebook selected from BS as Plain Text. But now that I am looking at Black Ducks post I see the ingredients section isn't aligned at the end either.

Well I'l go post it and see if it is a mess.

:thanks:
