I just left MS office and tried to print with Libre Office. It really is not good and wondered if there is a settting I am missing. I have read all the helps.

It is hard to describe but generally the stucture of the printed page is difficult to  read and atll though the idea is there is is misconstrued.

Words are not in the right place and there are long stretches of dots.

Any help appreciated.

I can't answer your Libre Office question but You may have better Windows Office compatibility with Free Office. This can open Windows Office files with better formatting than Libre Office.

Use the Print Preview function in LibreOffice to see how the document will appear when printed. This can help you identify potential formatting issues before printing.
