I went to a website of mine and cut some information from it. Then

When I pasted the cut info into the OO.o document, I find that I
can't get it to use the entire margin to margin area.... There's
about two inches of unused space on the right (not counting the
margin itself). No matter what I've done, I can't get it to reach
the right margin.
When you paste such material into Writer, you bring much of the
formatting of the original material with it. If that's not what you
want, read on.
How can I get this to go across the entire page from margin to margin??
You can tinker about with what you get, perhaps removing sections
(Format | Sections...) and converting tables to text (Table |
Convert > | Table to Text...). But if you want to leave the
formatting behind and just keep the textual material, there is an
easier way. Instead of using normal Paste, use Edit | Paste
Special... (or right-click | Paste Special... or Ctrl+Shift+V) and
then select "Unformatted text". You can then reformat the material
as you wish.
I trust this helps.
