I want to print a financial report worth data from my accounting
program. The program produces a couple of formats for exporting the
data - a text file, a html format that Libreoffice won't display
correctly and a csv.
Open the CSV file in LibreOffice Calc. Copy the relevant cells. Paste
into a text (Writer) document, but using Edit | Paste Special... (or
right-click | Paste Special... or Ctrl+Shift+V) instead of ordinary
Paste. In the Paste Special dialogue, select "HTML (HyperText Markup
Language)" or "Formatted text [RTF]". You will now have the material
in a table, which you can manipulate easily as you wish.
To get the kind of formatting I need, I could just import the text
file and make each line expand to fill the width of the page. I
can't see any way to do this - full justification doesn't apply to
the last line in a paragraph - which is every line.
You can do that (but it's probably not your best solution):
o Go to Format | Paragraph... | Alignment (or right-click |
Paragraph... | Alignment).
o Under Options, select Justified.
o For "Last line", select Justified.
Better still, you can set this in paragraph style.
I imported it into a spreadsheet then copied it from there into
Write. That worked out, but it is a bit clumsy.
I suspect that's the easiest you'll get ...

Amongst other things, I need the Account Balances and Profit and
Loss statements in the same document.
Combining information from multiple sources can very likely be done
most easily in the intermediate stage in the spreadsheet.
I trust this helps.
