Depends what you mean by Enter marks. I will guess that you enabled View
> Non-printing characters and see the result of an Enter as the Pilcrow
symbol (reversed P). These can easily be handled in OOo.
There is a bit of a trick though, I suggest that you enter an extra
paragraph mark where you want a break.
Next open Find & Replace dialogue and do the following:
1. Enter a $ in the find field
2. Enter a space in the Replace field.
3. Check the Regular Expression box
4. Replace all.
The result should be that all pilcrow are replaced with spaces except
where you put the extra paragraph breaks. Now you can fix the
formatting.
This will work in either 1.1.x or 1.9mxxx
