As I have been brought up in a "metric" country and moved then to an "imperial" country I am OK with both cm and inches while I am not familiar with points. As a consequence, while I can picture in my mind a 1/4" indent or a 1.5cm border I would not know how a 50pt gap looks. On the other hand I case see the benefits of uniform units of measurement across the template so I am good with using points... just give me a couple of months to get used to them :-) I will update the template as soon as Jean has finished with the section on figures. One additional thing I forgot to mention. The OOoBullet list style has a round bullet for the level 1, dash for level 2 then round bullet again for levels 3 through 10 I did not touch the style, but I think that in many of the guides nested bulleted lists have been represented with round bullets at all the levels: should we change it? Similar question for the OOoNumbered list style where we have arabic, letter, roman. Cheers, Michele Cheers, Michele
