I am running OpenOffice 2.0.2 on linux fedora 5.
Every time I want to create a new document a sort of system template by the name "Untitled1" is opened specifying a font (Lucida Handwriting) that I dislike and US-English spellcheck. I would like to modify OpenOffice so that "Untitled1" specifies Helvetica and Danish spellcheck. How do I accomplish that?

I'm running OO.o 2.0 on WinXP+SP2.
I've had similar issues, though not as bad is Erik's.
When I create a new text document (.odt),
the default font seems to be "Times New Roman".
I haven't bothered to check the spelling settings,
because I usually don't bother with it.
(With apologies to _Mystery Men_:  I am The Speller.  I spell *really* well.)
However, I find the default *paragraph* settings to be not to my liking.

I poked around and found a folder/directory called:
    ...\OpenOffice.org 2.0\share\template\en-US
I looked in some of the subdirectories, e.g. "internal",
and found html.stw and idxexample,
but those both came up with a default font I've never heard of: Thorndale.
This certainly doesn't correspond to what I get when I open a new document.

So ...  Where should we look to change the settings
so as to change default fonts, default paragraphs, default spelling, etc?
