[libreoffice-users] Re: Libre Writer Help download + Margin adjustment

Hello Charles

Suggest you go to a more current stable version, 6.3.5.

https://www.libreoffice.org/download/download/

Allow download to begin. On that page, click on "LibreOffice built-in help".

If that doesn't work, then, after downloading the package, use browser 
to go back to same page and click on the green link that says ":

Menu <Format><Page> and change Left/Right margins.

This is also the place for changing 'Orientation' from Landscape to 
Portrait.

Sorry, but I am not familiar with how Excel copies to Writer.

What I always do when copying from an uncommon format is clear it and 
use the software's format.

Highlight incorrectly formatted text, then Menu <Format><Clear Direct 
Formatting>
