    Use &#xD in your XML document wherever you want to have the line breaks.

    There’s a good explanation at this site: http://www.stylusstudio.com/xmldev/200309/post80050.html

    ANOTHER OPTION

    Try just typing <br/> where you want the space

    EDIT FOR FUTURE VIEWERS

    What worked for him was typing \n where he wanted the line-break
