Aaron- Turns out you're absolutely right, and the manual is absolutely wrong. As it says in the manual after describing how to customize your settings to the maestro font default.ftm file in the Component File folder...
-From now on, every time you double-click the Finale program icon, choose New/Default Document from the File menu or choose New/Document With Setup Wizard, a fresh, untitled copy of this Maestro Font Default file appears on the screen, formatted according to your preferences. Right. I made the changes to the appropriate template in the Document Styles folder instead, and it now works fine. Thanks for your help!

In Fin08 and newer, I believe Maestro Font Default.ftm is only used if you press Default Document from the Launch Window, or do File | New | Default Document. If you use the Setup Wizard, in which you have to select a Document Style, the template used as a base is one of the templates in the Document Styles folder in the Finale folder.
