Modifying Default Templates First, open either an existing OpenOffice.org template and modify it, or open a new document and edit it as necessary to create the desired template.
You can define a document template for each OpenOffice.org module. The following describes how to proceed for text documents. 1.Save the document by choosing File - Templates - Save and saving the document in the My Templates category. 2.Choose File - Templates - Organize. 3.Double-click My Templates in the list on the left. You will see the user-defined templates in the user directory specified under Tools - Options - OpenOffice.org - Paths. Select the template you have just saved and open the context menu or open the submenu of the Commands button. 4.Choose Set As Default Template. The next time you open a new text document, the new document will be based on the new default template.
