A friend was having trouble with this in WPS Office and asked if
LibreOffice could do better.
He's printing some bridge table cards and he wants SOUTH upside down at
the top, North rightside up at the bottom, and WEST and EAST "facing
out" at the sides. That is, when each player sits at the table,
I want to create a document of a layout of a bridge table. It should
have the words, "NORTH", "EAST", "SOUTH" and "WEST" on the four edges,
each facing outward.
That is, when printed and placed in the center of a bridge table, each
player will have one such word facing him.
How do I do that?

Can LO produce an executable file from a PowerPoint presentation, so
that no viewer is needed at the time the presentation is presented?

I have a spreadsheet which has two sheets -- Checkout and PaddleNumbers.
Checkout has the following columns
A: Code
B: Item
C: Opening Bid
D: Paddle Num
E: Buyer Name (contains =VLOOKUP(D2,$PaddleNumbers.A$2:B$110,2,0)
suitable incremented)

while PaddleNumbers has
A: Paddle NUM
B: Name
I thought I said that after phase 2, the spreadsheet would be copied to a
second computer.
I thought that dividing the way I mentioned would make merging easier.

At my wife's church auction, they are going to use a spreadsheet (as

Attendees' names and "paddle numbers" will be entered at the start of
the auction.
The second phase is the entry of purchased item codes, winning bid

We would like the Kingsoft Spreadsheet (KSSS) to have the following columns:

D. Description of item purchased
E. Starting bid

For any given buyer there will be N entries (where N > 1).
