Hi Paul!

I am not sure if I can follow.

In my few tests Libreoffice exportet interpreted the fixed length as the
width of the cell showing in CALC.

Unfortunately for me CALC somehow gives a little space to the left when
presenting the data and thus in the export there is a space. When I manuall
adapt the width and get rid of the little white space in front of my content
it exports just fine, without the unnecessary space. But with about
1000-2000 columns manually adapting the width is not an option.

In your case it probably added the spaces at the end because your data in
the cells is formatted as text (left aligned) while mine are number (right
aligned). So I don't see much difference.

When you open up the width of the cell, Libreoffice adds many spaces. I'll
do some testing with OpenOffice and with the newest version of LibreOffice
today.

I'll also try to follow your instructions above.
