Hello Keith I'm trying to understand what you want to accomplish.
You write "I want to print a financial report worth (perhaps you meant
with?) data from my accounting program" and then describe how you try
and manipulate that data in another program. So it seems you are
printing a financial report already but the output of the account
program doesn't meet your needs. Is this correct?
Then you describe various output formats the accounting program
provides and that none of the formatting meets your need. My questions
here are:
- how do you want the formatted reports to look? e.g. the data
centered on the page
- what appears on the page before and after the data?
- what program are you expecting to use to make the formatted report?
Thank you
Hi Alan,
Amongst other things, I need the Account Balances and Profit and Loss
statements in the same document. But I also need to produce a clearly
readable document so that amounts line up etc. Other reasons I want to
edit the document include to add a logo plus comments.
The financial software produces information that looks like this:
Item1 $32.00
Item 2 $3257091.23
Whereas I want it to look like this:
Item1 $32.00
Item 2 $3257091.23
A table would be ideal as you can add borders etc, but that's not essential.
I used to export the data as html which used to import directly into LO,
but now LO just shows all the html code rather than the formatted
document. So then I used to open the html file in a web browser and copy
and paste the page into LO. But the latest version of the financial
program (moneydance) has changed what it puts into the html so that
even passing it through a web browser just results in a list similar to
that above.
Hope that clarifies my aim.
