PreserveEmptyLines

MarkdownLoadOptions.PreserveEmptyLines property

Gets or sets a boolean value indicating whether to preserve empty lines while load a Markdown document. The default value is false.

Normally, empty lines between block-level elements in Markdown are ignored. Empty lines at the beginning and end of the document are also ignored. This option allows to import such empty lines.

public bool PreserveEmptyLines { get; set; }
