I am new to LibreOffice. I have been using Open Office and Excel. I created 2 columns and when I print it comes out on 6 pages. How can I get the columns I want printed on one page? Thanks.

Are you thinking f something like “folding the columns”?

The quickest way is to copy the cells, paste into Writer and click Format > Page Style > Columns and select 2, 3 or 4 columns as needed or will fit.
If you do it regularly then create a Calc template with a second sheet with something like =$Sheet1.A1
in cell A1 and down to A45 (or whatever fits). In cell B1 enter =$Sheet1.B1
drag to row 45. make column c narrow. In cell D1 enter =$Sheet1.A1
for the heading. In D2 enter =$Sheet1.A46
, in D1 enter =$Sheet1.B1
E2 enter =$Sheet1.B46
, drag D2 & E2 down to row 45, etc.
Somebody will have a better idea, but this will work so long as the number of rows is similar and the number of columns remain the same
It worked! I copied the Calc columns and inserted them into a text document. However, here’s my question…in using Excel I can fill up all the columns within the established margins margins and all the columns will be printed out on one page. Why can’t I do this with Calc? I see the vertical margin lines next to each column. Not being able to print out all the columns on one page with Calc is a pain. Any thoughts on how to fix this? Would changing the margins help? I sincerely appreciate your input.
