| _FLAGS | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| The print command displays full journal entries (transactions) from the | ||||
| journal file in date order, tidily formatted. With --date2, transactions | ||||
| are sorted by secondary date instead. | ||||
|

| print's output is always a valid hledger journal. | ||||

| journal file, sorted by date (or with --date2, by secondary date). | ||||
| Amounts are shown right-aligned within each transaction (but not across | ||||
| all transactions). Directives and inter-transaction comments are not | ||||
| shown. Eg: | ||||
|

| print's output is usually a valid hledger journal, and you can process | ||||
| it again with a second hledger command. This can be useful for certain | ||||
| kinds of search, eg: | ||||
|

| 
 | ||||
| There are some situations where print's output can become unparseable: | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| -   Rounding amounts according to commodity display styles can cause | ||||
|     transactions to appear unbalanced. | ||||
| -   Valuation affects posting amounts but not balance assertion or | ||||
|     balance assignment amounts, potentially causing those to fail. | ||||
| -   Auto postings can generate postings with too many missing amounts. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| Normally, the journal entry's explicit or implicit amount style is | ||||
| preserved. For example, when an amount is omitted in the journal, it | ||||
| will not appear in the output. Similarly, when a transaction price is | ||||
