Wanted to add my voice to this, as someone who wanted badly to switch to the Proton ecosystem to get away from the Google ecosystem; the problem that stopped me from doing so is exactly this, in my case as someone taking college classes - and this issue probably prevents anyone taking college classes from switching to Proton. Universities require papers to follow specific professional formats like APA or MLA and assign Grades in part on that - down to specific spacing requirements. Proton Docs automatically adds an extra space at the end of each new paragraph, which does not align with APA format. I thought I could get around this and still keep my stuff in Proton Docs, by first composing my papers in Proton Docs then just copying them into another word processor to change the spacing to APA - but that didn't even work, because the extra space after a paragraph is baked in to the formatting if I originally composed in Proton Docs, and I cannot remove it later. Whatever the thinking is behind the current structure, please be aware that it may be stopping all college students from switching to Proton Docs, and please make the changes necessary so people can format in Proton Docs the way academic institutions require.

Such a disappointment! I was looking to replace Google Workspace and transfer my docs here. I agree completely with Phil’s assessment above. As it stands, without improvement in this area, I plan not to renew next year.

While the above updates will take effort, they are absolutely necessary ... the sooner the better. As is, the limitations with formatting (e.g. not even offering the ability to modify spacing between lines) are extremely prohibitive. Thank you for your work on a significantly enhanced version of Proton Docs. This will greatly increase Proton's viability for many more potential users.

PLEASEEE PROTON DON'T CLOSE OUT THIS IDEA BECAUSE IT HAS MULTIPLE IDEAS IN IT!!!!

This is also very important for me. I am using proton in school an not even things like sub-/superscript characters (like in chemical formulas) are even available.

This is true! I have made the switch, but importing all my docs meant learning that, for example, line breaks disappeared, no table of contents, and I had to open the docs on desktop before I could do it from mobile. These kind of fixes would be great. I can't sell my colleagues on it without something pretty close to Google Docs.
