Product Description Font design and display

I have been redesigning my site to make it easier to navigate the shopping cart. Haven't made it the working site yet. I just installed ckeditor so that I could apply bold fonts, paragraph spacing, etc instead of having one long paragraph description being displayed. I know some people say looks don't matter in product description, but home brewers and winemakers really like to know specifics, and I need to make them easier to read. Since my product descriptions are rather long, one gets lost in the data without separating specifics. I can get them looking pretty nice with the editor, and when I go to preview mode, they look fine. However, after saving, then looking at it online via online catalog, nothing changes, it is just one long paragraph with no formatting. If you were to look at http://dpwigley.com/hoptoit/index.ph...ex&cPath=98_66 you would see how it all jumbles together. Is there a setting somewhere to change this so that WYSIWYG after saving? Do I need a different template? I really kind of like this one (Responsive All Business) by Picaflor Azul after trying quite a few...

A little further information: if you actually click on the product, it is as I designed, but in the first view, it all shows as one line. I think the answer is to just show a few characters of the description, and let the customer click on the product to show the rest, so I guess I will go with that...
