[Solved] Invoice template with an .odt extension

Post by markwrites »

I'm trying to make an invoice template with an .odt extension as it will be emailed and i want to be able to send to people who have Word. i want the words in the screenshot in about one cm and can do that with tab. But if it goes over a line the text I enter goes back to the very edge. In FEE if the text goes over one line it goes to the outer edge

I will be saving this as invoice template and then entering the details and saving it as invoice joe bloggs

Don't use tab. Use a paragraph style that has an indent before text of the amount you want as a left indent. That value will be applied to the whole paragraph.
