Hi all.I originally sent this to the OOo users list.

I'm trying to change the default font and *font size* for text documents
in OOo. I do not seem to be able to change the font size and save as the
default. I would be willing to create a new style or template or
whatever is necessary so long as when I open a new document it opens
with my choice of font and font size. I've tried creating a custom style
but it is only good for the open document. There's got to be some
relatively easy/direct way of doing this, I just can't seem to find it.



Tools > Options > Text Document > Basic Fonts


Set the fonts, uncheck "Current document only". I've no idea how to set a default size, but at least this should set the right font for you.

Also I am unable to change the default format for saving documents. As
it is now the default is for MS Word. Nothing I do seems to change it.
Choosing Tools> Options> Load/save> General and selecting text document,
changing the "Always save as" field from MS Word to OOo 1.0 changes it
only as long as OOo is running. Once I close the program it reverts to
the MS Word format.In addition to being very inconvenient, I find it
offensive that the default should be to the MS format.


Do what you did above, and make sure that "load user-specific settings with the document" box is checked (at the top of the settings screen). This should make the settings stick.
