I am a new user of Open Office, and not an attorney. However, I need
to be able to write some legal pleadings. Pleadings are double-spaced
and require line numbering on the left-hand side of the page,
typically from 1 to 28 on each page. Also, pleadings pages have two
closely-spaced vertical lines on the left and one vertical line on the
right side of the page, with the text between these lines. The line
numbers are to the left of the double line. I don't find any way in
Open Office to format such pages, but would be grateful for guidance
on how to write such documents on plain paper using Open Office.
I played around a bit with the Pleading template written by Victor Biaz
found on the OOExtras site and have uploaded a modified version at:

Big changes are that I hooked the "numbering" frame to a header so that
it would repeat from page to page and removed the text frames to create
just "blank" paper. Given that I'm a CPA and not an attorney, I make no
claims this is proper <grin>, but it might serve as a starting point.
