Didn't even know about this one. Have to admit that although I've had
35+ years in the software world (mostly in data base design, data
modeling, and quality assurance), when it comes to LibreOffice I'm just
a plain old user and don't know about everything that's out there!
Yes, thanks, I got the problem solved (see my message sent just before
yours).

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 :)

Subject: [libreoffice-users] Managing Templates in Writer
I recently installed v4.0 (v4.0.0.3, to be exact) and, of course, all the setup I finally
accomplished in v3.4 is gone. My primary concern is the default style, which has
reverted to .79" (2 cm) margins as the default. Being in the US, I'd rather have
defaults of 1".
The help appears to be a bit behind the program, and I can't figure out how to save
any changes so when I open a new document I get my 1" margins. Here's what I
have done so far:
1. Change the margins, then save a new template named "Normal". This is
insufficient, as it doesn't become my default template.
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
... Organize, but File ... Templates doesn't exist.
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
leaving the program and coming back (although it remains in Customize).
I'd guess I'm missing a step somewhere, but I can't find what it is. Any ideas?
