In my opinion the default color for the Document Background should be white (or
a similiar light solid color) instead of the current transparent color. This is
because the way it is currently configured by default inherits the Gnome theme's
color which in many cases is not representative of wysiwyg output when printed.
e.g. in OOo Writer with a dark gnome theme the page color by default is dark and
the text is white.

This also indicates that the font color should not be transparent but black by
default since that is the color that will actually print unless the color is
manually changed. Using something other than black for the text actually is very
misrepresentative of what will come out when printed since the document could
potentially end up actually using font colors and end up using the same or very
near same color in some of the text (manually selected) which will print out as
such and then the rest of the text being the Gnome theme color will then print
as black. To the user looking at the document in its current transparent form
the text could potentially look to all be the same 'default' color.

I don't know about the rest of the colors used under Tools->Options->Appearance
but they probably need to be revisited as well. The default colors should match
what color will come out when printed/exported to PDF.
