How to change a table to landscape:

  5. Click OK

How to make references double spaced.
  1. Find the style used for the endnotes (often Endnote Text):
    Click on the Toolbox symbol
    Click on Styles
    Check Show Styles Guides
    Look at the endnotes
  2. Find the proper style in the style list

How to change the endnote nubmering to arabic (rather than Roman) numbers.
  1. Select Insert - Footnote

  3. Select Apply

How to move the endnotes to the end of the section, rather than at the end of the document.

How to delete the endnote separator line

  1. Click the View tab, and then click Draft in the Views group.
  2. Double-click any footnote or endnote in the body of your text. The Footnotes pane appears at the bottom of your document.
  3. You can edit the color or style of the separator by choosing options on the Home tab, or, to delete the separator, click Footnote Separator in the Footnotes list, and then select and delete the separator line. However, it still takes the space of one line. I first selected the line and changed the Font size to 1 before deleting it.


Use the View tab to return to Read Mode, Print Layout view
I found it better to export the document from LibreOffice than to copy the file into an empty Word document (the endnotes then became hyperlinks with Roman number, which could not be changed).
However, endnotes became quite strange.
Had to modify the endnote anchor style to no superscript and then insert superscript again by hand for most of the references.
