A bit of a hack, but create a LibreOffice Draw document.

Change Page Properties to

Format: User

Width: 8.50" (or what works for you)

Height: 0.50 (or what works for you)

Orientation: Landscape

Click on "Insert Line" icon and add 5 lines of size needed.

<Ctl><A> and copy/paste to LibreOffice Writer.

Adjust to suite and repeat copy to LibreOffice Writer as many times as needed.

Hope this helps.

Hi All,

Word is really persnickety re: horizontal lines.

Perhaps, Libre Writer handes this better?

I've watched many YTs, read many AIs and chatgpt'd over this.

I want to create 5 horizontal lines but be able to adust the length of each
line AND the spacing in between the lines.

Everything I've seen/read suggests you do the following, none of which
works for both goals.

1 - Borders > Bottom Border
2. Shapes > line - draw the line to the desired length but that won't allow
spacing adjustment between the lines.
3 - type in 3 dashes or underscores .... can't adjust the line length

Anyone solve this conundrum in Libre Writer?

Thank you,

Charles.
