How do you export your data

[Laura Conrad]

I'm using gnucash for the accounting of an organization of which I'm
treasurer.  Other people, particularly the president, need to see
the state of the accounts, on a level more detailed than the
expense and income piecharts, which are very nice.

He's a microsoft user, and we've been communicating on budgets via
spreadsheets, which he views in excel, and I view in gnumeric.  This
works fine, and I'm surprised that gnucash doesn't seem to offer any
kind of export (like .csv files) that could be used this way.

The best I came up with this morning was to send him a .pdf file of
the register printout, and a .html file of the chart of accounts.  Is
there something a little more accessible that I could have done?  In
particular, some kind of text-based export that could be annotated
or put into a spreadsheet would be preferable.  I can edit html, but I
don't think he can, and neither of us can do much with pdf.
