Will do. I just had to remember to leave the "line" where the "≈≈≈" is. [that is not on my keyboard so I had to look it up in the older posting] Then use a wrap through for the graphic image to keep the page/line formatting correct. OK, I used this image https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/File:Lines-blgr1_draft_k-j.png in place of my "simple line" and it prints out fine on both my monochrome laser and my Canon inkjet. I like that image over the "blgr2" version. Here is my test file. https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/File:LibreOfficeV.4.0.x-CommunityBrochure-GeneralInformation-USLtr-green-triangle-1-line.odt Thanks Tim! It looks quite nice! I was a little worried that the triangle would not be large enough to look good when in colour print. On screen, it looks quite decent. What do you all think? Should we go with the blgr1 design? It's quite a step up from the tilde line and native language groups should be able to manage to move it on their brochure depending on where their text ends. I vote a +1 for it. Cheers, Marc The little green triangle looks fine in color. With the graphic as a wrap through image, then you can do a lot of work around it for the text and then just fit the graphic in the space. -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: design+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/design/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
