Within the program options, the layout of the default file format settins is
confusing.

If I understand correctly, this is meant to allow a choice of file format for
each type of document. However, the use of two side-by-side drop-down boxes is
not clear: at first glance it appears the purpose of this is to create a single
link between two different lists, instead of selecting an item in the second
(dynamic) list for each item in the first.

Too much is being crammed into too few controls. I suggest devoting an entire
pane to this family of setting. This would be called 'File formats' and be
listed after 'General' in the 'Load/Save' group. See attachments for suggested
interface design.
