--- Comment #7 from Fabian Tröster <[email protected]> ---
Since you want to be pedantic: Yes, the wizard creates a template. That doesn't
change the fact that the template needs to be the correct paper size. It makes
a huge difference for the position of the folding marks if the paper size is
letter or A4. Since I am in Europe where we use metric measurements I want the
template to be in A4 not in stupid U.S. letter. The folding marks are not at
the right position even if I change the paper size afterwards. Is that really
so diffcult to understand? Of course I know how to change paper sizes after the
fact but that's not the point of a wizard, right?

So, the bug is still a bug and needs fixing. At least if LibreOffice ever wants
to step up against MS Office, which incidently doesn't make that stupid
mistake.

It is part of a correct localisation to make sure the wizard does use the
correct paper sizes. It is a siple fact that if LibreOffice is installed and
run in a German environment it will have to use A4 or A5 or A3 or some sort of
DIN format. Letter is nowhere to be found here in Germany at least.

And just to reiterate: This bug has been in LibreOffice since the very
beginning. That's four years! It is a bug regardless whether we're talking
about a template or a document. Don't be so pedantic!

Regards
Fabian
