Mike,
Well done! I fully agree with you-
I opened a new calc document, changed the measurement unit from cm to inches.
That marked my document as being changed!
As far as I see there's nothing changed in the document
Then I changed a column width to 1 (inch) and saved
I took another documen

Set the page size first (to whatever the printer wants for the card), and

Actually, all I'm doing is laying out a greeting card. The print shop
needs 1/8" margins, and I'm a stickler for detail. I agree that Scribus
or a CAD program has more flexibility, but I like LO.
Seems like the consensus is that my suggestion is possible, but will
have to wait for funding. Make

Maybe request for user selec
Dave,
Depending on what you are going to draw; if anything either technical or
building/cottage then you can try either ProgeCAD Smart 2009 or
Draftsight, both have free versions that are fully functional 2D CAD
programs for private use only.
Especially Draftsight is quite easy to learn.

Maybe request for user selectable precision? In your example 1/8 inch =
0.3175 cm so if someone uses the metric system

What precision do you have under the Tools - Options - Draw - Grid
dialog preferences ?
