I haven't seen that in any of my files. Is your collection file a reasonable size for emailing it to me? You could export without the images, to make it smaller.

How did this file get generated in the first place? There are carriage-returns in the XML serialization, Tellico preserves those and they show up in the list view as you see it. I think the real bug may be whatever generated the data in the first place, which data source in Tellico did you use to create the data? I'll have to track that down and fix it.

I would expect the layout problem to be present in earlier versions, too. Did you upgrade from an older version, or is this collection newly created?

Thanks for your help with this.

If I remember it correctly I get the first portion of the data using alexandria by searching amazon using isbn numbers. Then I imported the data into tellico, I think. And added some more books again by searching amazon with isbn numbers.
And that is how I got this file. Another thing is that I cannot import this file into alexandria. So it is a strange problem.

Thanks for working on such a nice project.

Is there a way to fix my file. Otherwise, I will have to spend a lot of time
creating the same catalog.

Thanks

I'll check to see if the alexandria importer is adding unnecessary newlines.

I piped your file through a regexp to remove them, and the result is attached. I think it's probably clean.

And Tellico 1.3.2 will deal with the spurious carriage-returns...thanks again for the bug-report.
