I’m new to LibreOffice Writer and have a couple of bones to pick but have found work-arounds for most of my issues. However, the “Find and Replace” function in LibreOffice Writer has me stymied.
Open “Find & Replace” in Windows MS-Word, click “More” and you see a list of non-printing formatting characters, e.g. Paragraph Marks, Manual Line Breaks, etc., that you can use Search & Replace to modify your document. For instance, replace two paragraph marks (2 “Return” key entries) with one paragraph mark (1 “Return” key) and a tab character. Also, please don’t say to do it manually, I’ve 300 pages of text to format.
Does LibreOffice Writer have ANYTHING similar? Don’t point me at the Regular Expressions…they don’t work e.g. \n\c in the “C” programming language is a new line\carriage return character combination and \t is a tab character. In Libre Office Writer, ]n is a hard page break. I know, I tried to get it to work. Please help.
Many Thanks.
