To convert format, add a new first line in the directions. First, re-order ingredients so the order matches the order needed in the directions.
Format is |x|0,1,2-0|3,4,5-1| where 0,1,2,3,4,5 are ingredients by order, and -0 and -1 are the steps that the ingredients correspond to.
It uses the recipe card format if the first line of the directions begins with "|x|"
