Thank you, with some experimentation that should take care of the
line spacing issue. Any suggestions for the horizontal
positioning? The form has about 150 items, which do not line up
with each other and OO treats as individual paragraphs.
I'm not sure that I understand. You can used the same
Format|Paragraph|Indents&Spacing| for indentation. Checking, I see that
I can go in increments of 0.02"/-0.02" for default (haven't tried 0.01)
in points.
I /think/ I understand: WordPerfect allows absolute or relative
positioning (in WP parlance, "advancing") of anything to 1/1200" [called
wpu(=WordPerfect units)] - like a DPT program. For form creation and
matching, it's hard to beat for predictable ease of use. I expect Bill
is looking for something like that, which I have not found it Writer.
I've often made use of that capability, and still return to WP when that
kind of job is required, because it's a far quicker and easier tool.
Among word processors, at least, WP probably has no peer as a print
engine, so sometimes it just makes sense to go back to that.
