Success - using Inkscape, as shown in @Stevo 's link in Post #2

Thanks everyone! I've followed the same directions in LibreOffice that you posted, Gabriel_M . But I either did it wrong multiple times or it just doesn't work. I've given up trying any more with LO. Tomorrow after school I will try Inkscape and maybe Scribus as well, and I'll mark it "solved&q...
