Hello Melanie from Germany,
don't worry about the DIN A4 used outside US,
keep your template. We (the user of your manuals)
don't have any problems with printing the letter
size pages on a DIN A4 printer and paper size.

Thanks Daniel, Diane, Rick.
I should have said before, our main method of delivery to customers is
PDF. So, we're wanting a PDF that's of the right size before it ever
gets to a paper printer.
As for recreating our template... Just for our English user guides, we
have 18 template files. We have already recreated about 10 of those
files for two other book formats (training and marketing), so we're up
to 38 now. We produce a multi-volume software user guide (totaling about
10K pages), which is rev'd 2-3 times a year--plus 5-6 trainings each
year--and we are a small writing team of only 3-6 people at any time.
It's a nightmare to think about yet another set of 38 templates to
maintain. But, if we have to we have to, and I will use your
recommendations.
Any others would also be welcome.
