[TYPO3] Transformations: Getting tags shown correctly on front end

Hey everybody...

I posted about this problem at the end of last week, but the response I 
got wasn't very helpful and I've figured out more of the problem, so I 
thought I'd try again and see if anyone can help me put this to bed.

I'm doing a site in Templavoila for the first time. So far everything 
seems fine, except that when I put in content for a page, all the 
content is strung together into a single line.

I'm using TinyRTE to enter the content, and that RTE properly surrounds 
each paragraph with <p>...</p> tags.  I understand that when the content 
is saved to the DB, those tags will be stripped.  HOWEVER, when the 
content is retrieved for display on the front-end page, the <p>...</p> 
tags are not restored -- which leads to the one-long-line-of-content 
problem.

After spending all day chewing on Typo3's documentation, I _think_ the 
problem is that I have the wrong transformation configuration.  i.e. I 
need to make a change in $TCA to tell it to re-insert the paragraph tags.

BUT, I'm not sure where that change would be made, exactly.  Or what the 
syntax of the change would be.

I am out of ideas for finding this information in the documentation. 
Any help would be appreciated.  This is not my first Typo3 site but it 
is my first TemplaVoila site, and it feels like I'm having to learn 
everything over again...
