Text Formatting ⇒ Force blank Line between Paragraphs in PDF

[novicedude]

The pdf file generated displays extra space between paragraphs (that part's easy), but the problem I'm having is when I copy&paste from the pdf file into another file (e.g. notepad, word, etc), there isn't a blank line between the paragraphs. Is there a way to force an invisible linefeed character between paragraphs?

And for bonus points, is there a way to put invisible space characters at the start of a paragraph when it's indented?

No: LaTeX does not insert space characters for spacing, it uses a 'rubber' length. As a result, copy-paste does not see 'spaces' or 'newlines' in these positions.
