Hi :)
Have you found the guides on
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Publications
or just using the in-built help?  Both do lag a bit but the wiki-pages's 
Getting Started Guide is for the 4.0.0.  The chapters are all done but people 
are still proof-reading the full book.

Did you manage to solve the templates issue?  
Regards from
Tom :)

>I recently installed v4.0 (v4.0.0.3, to be exact) and, of course, all the

>The help appears to be a bit behind the program, and I can't figure out how to

>
>1.  Change the margins, then save a new template named "Normal". This is

>2.  Change the default page style, then re-save the "Normal" template.  Still 
>no change.

>3.  Try to make this my default template.  Help says go to File ... Templates

>4.  Go to Customize and try to add Manage Templates to the File menu.  This 
>appears in the Customize area, but never shows up in the menu even after
