If you have the Word document still, give the "Paste from Word" option in CKEditor a try. Otherwise, Fergus, do we have a database backup that would have the old version of this page around? (I did insert a few linebreaks and removed a pre tag so the page fits on screen for now.)

I agree with Fergus that probably the problem occurred when you edited the page: CKEditor doesn't play well with the old "no html" format. I think, if you do not click the "Source" button in CKEditor, everything is fine except that empty lines get swallowed, breaking any paragraph structure you had. (Regular linebreaks are preserved.) I looked for a little while to see how to fix this, but didn't find anything right away. Fergus, could you also look?

As a temporary workaround, if you need to edit any non-html pages, you can disable javascript in your browser, which will kill CKEditor and leave you with the old style textarea. (Or can you disable just the CKEditor js?)
