Hi Paul! So I did some more testing with the latest version and I still persist: LibreOffice uses the visible width of the column to determine the fixed width! Here is what I did: - Followed your instructions on how to format the cells (had done this before already!). - Included some text columns - Marked everything and double clicked the column header row to adjust the width of the columns automatically to their content. - Made one of the columns with numbers and one of the columns with text wider to show the effect, left the others with the automatically adjusted width: So what happens is the following: LibreOffice adds 1 space to the left of each cell containing numbers and it adds actually 3 spaces to the right of each cell containing text! Here a screenshot. Marked with a red circle are the "problematic" areas. Those spaces in the cells Libreoffice seems to export as well, which would be OK if adjusting the columns automatically would adjust correctly, but there are always those spaces. http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/file/n3987100/libreoffice.png -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Problem-when-exporting-exporting-from-CALC-to-a-fixed-length-csv-tp3986825p3987100.html Sent from the Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+help@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
