-----------------------------------------------------------

Y, I'm not sure.  

I have hesitation about changing the original logic, because I'm not sure why 
if(inParagraph) was added...maybe for properly closing formatting?

I wonder if 
{noformat}
        } else {
            lazyStartParagraph();
            out.endElement("p");
        }
{noformat}
would be more general and handle the formatting stuff properly?

We could do an A/B test against govdocs1 and see what happens. :)

Y, I'm not sure.  If there are consecutive {{\par}}s, we aren't calling 
lazyStartParagraph, and I don't think we should.

>            Reporter: mortee

> I'm trying to extract the text content from RTF documents. The files contain 
> empty lines (two or more consecutive paragraph-end marks), on which the 
> further processing relies to tell apart different parts of the text. But 
> unfortuantely Tika (with --text switch) eliminates all those empty lines, 
> instead of preserving them.
