I suspect that it is because AmigaGuide doesn't handle "embedded"
formatting etc. commands that are split between lines. e.g. Look at Col 68 Line
106 (or so) of the original (un-reformatted) guide where you have:
@{"partitions" link glossary.partition}
^ ^ ^
68 75 106
As you can see, reformatting (75 cols) would leave '@{"parti' at the end
of one line and put the rest 'tions" link glossary.partition}' at the start of
the next line. Alas, AmigaGuide (at least the 2.x version) does not seem to
want to look on the next line for the rest — that's what makes (manual)
reformatting such a tedious solution :).
