Tom,
Maybe...
But RTF has one huge advantage, it's very easy to create on other
systems, as it is pure text. The file I posted is generate on IBM's
z/OS. Maybe you can tell me how I can generate an ODT file on that
platform?

Hi :)
The Odt format is a zip container that holds an Xml file(s). So my guess is
that if you can generate Xml in text-files then it should be reasonably easy.
But as you point out it does generate fairly different results on different
machines using different OSes or / and different

Hi :)
If it's just text then why not use the txt format?
I'm not sure why your Odts are ending up so large. Typically around 20-50Kb
seems fairly normal for just a couple of pages.
I feel i should apologise that MS never made the Rtf format OpenSource rather
than proprietary and hid the

Because it's text with limited bolding of some words.

Hi :)
Then perhaps use html for the formatting?
Is the aim to create files that won't be able to be read in the future? If so
then keeping on with Rtf does make sense but if you do want them to be able to
be read in the future then you need to change to a different format.
MS have taken the
Interesting discussion. For years, I have been an RTF fan for the very
reasons mentioned by Robert. A small word processor I use a lot, called
Atlantis, uses RTF as its native format. I also found that nearly every word
processor on the planet is able to read RTF files.
But, as Robert found

The first idea that came up to my mind is that unrecognized or

Hi :)
Could the output be piped through something to convert to html? Would it be
difficult to construct? Is anyone here able to do something simple or is it
likely to be horribly complex?

Hi :)
Ok, i googled it and found a few interesting ideas for Rtf - Html. There seems
to be a few freeware tools but i tend to distrust freeware and then there were
some guides on how to write your own and some with just coding in C# and stuff.
Oddly i didn't look through our own Extensions

No luck with either Hyperlink from the INSERT menu, or Hyperlink from the
Functions.
The Help pages are anything but on this subject.
Can you send me a copy of your file so that I can try it.
Many thanks, Tink.

All this seems very weird. I never had any problem with sorting in
LibreOffice. Perhaps the data contains strange things, such as

Hello
I need to format the first couple of pages in two columns, insert a manual
page break, and then have the remainder of the document formated as
single-column.
After adding a manual page break, the focus is on the new page, formatted as

Problem solved: I selected the new page improperly formated as two columns,
told LO to format it as three columns, then formated it back to one column,
and presto. Weird.
