Hello! We have a problem on a system which runs Ubuntu 8.04 for many users. Our default paper size is A4, not letter. But OpenOffice always sets the paper size for a new document to letter.
I figured out that this has to do with the locale. With en_US.UTF-8 the size is letter, with de_DE.UTF-8 the size is A4. Because we do not want german menus the locale should stay on en_US.UTF-8. So I set LC_PAPER, but that does not change anything. Here are the results: LANG=en_US.UTF-8 LC_PAPER=de_DE.UTF-8 -> letter LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 -> A4 strace shows me that /usr/lib/locale/en_US.utf8/LC_PAPER is read. But even replacing this file does not change the default format. What can I try next? Did I understand LC_PAPER wrong or is this a bug in OpenOffice?
