David,

To create a template, open LO and create the desired framework such as margins, page breaks, headers, footers, etc. in a normal document.

Under File>Template>Save save the template (I prefer My Templates as the default location) with a your preferred name.

To use a template use File>New>Templates and Documents and select the desired template. It will create a new document based on your template.

I specifically tested this with Writer.

*Hi,*

OpenOffice as my word processing package. In OpenOffice and earlier
versions of Libre Office I was able to create new basic templates without
problem. All I had was a series of templates in either A4 or A5 sizes with
the font type and size in the name. It was very convenient and worked well.
Form some things I used A4 Constantia 12 for example and for others A5
Colibri 14 etc etc. depending on the task.*

its final format. I am no longer able to set up and save my  templates in
these two versions and am having to format each new document as I write it.

*Can you pllease help?*
