Are you using Reports:Assets & Liabilities:Balance Sheet?  If so, my
accountant wife agrees that it is poorly formatted.  And the other one
using eguile while better formatted includes an Income Statement as part
of the Balance Sheet.

Perhaps you would like to try a modified version of the eguile one that
my wife much prefers.  I call it "Balance Sheet -- formatted".  You can
download the associated files here: 
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1lAnu09qeAKQI66-k_uP558IpfL_2Ce-h

I forget which O/S you are on.  The config-user.scm goes into my
$HOME/.config/gnucash folder.  The other three go into
$HOME/.local/share/gnucash folder.

Beware if you already have a config-user.scm file.  Simply take the
contents and add them to your existing one:  (load
(gnc-build-userdata-path "balsheet-fmtd.scm"))

You will need to adjust the  above paths to your particular O/S.  I'm
running on a Linux distro -- Ubuntu 18.04
