Hello,
Newlines in an abstract are also exported to csv. This makes it very difficult to parse the file. So basically line breaks shouldn't be exported to csv, they should be replaced by a space or something like that. My JabRef version is 2.7. If there is no reason for this behavior it should be changed.
It looks like this:
BibliographyType,ISBN,Identifier,Author,Title,Journal,Volume,Number,Month,Pages,Year,Address,Note,URL,Booktitle,Chapter,Edition,Series,Editor,Publisher,ReportType,Howpublished,Institution,Organizations,School,Annote,Custom1,Custom2,Custom3,Custom4,Custom5
7,"","article","Smith, Mr","A book","C",1,,"","1",2011,"","","","","","","","","","","","","","","","Lorem
ipsum
dolor
sit
amet,
consectetur
adipiscing
elit.","","","",""

- Definition of the CSV Format
While there are various specifications and implementations for the
CSV format (for ex. [4], [5], [6] and [7]), there is no formal
specification in existence, which allows for a wide variety of
interpretations of CSV files. This section documents the format that
seems to be followed by most implementations:
Each record is located on a separate line, delimited by a line
break (CRLF). For example:aaa,bbb,ccc CRLF
zzz,yyy,xxx CRLF
(See http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4180#page-2 )
