Hello Erik,

First of all you should consider upgrading to version 2.4.1 which
contains several improvements compared to 2.3.0, but this is not the
answer to your problem :-)

I am a bit surprised by your email since I have downloaded the en_US
version (localization en_GB) and my default page is A4... maybe this
is a special feature of the Fedora 7 distribution...

Anyway, since the page size is defined in the hard coded default
template, you can easily solve your problem by replacing that default
with your own default.

Open a new document, change the page style to A4 (Format > Page) then
select File > Templates > save.
Give the template a meaningful name (eg. myDefault). Press OK.
Select now File > Templates > Organize, find your newly created
template and select it (should be under My Templates in the left hand
side list. Press the button Command and select the option Set As
Default Template.

>From now on any new document will be in A4.

Note: if there are other things you would like to change such as page
margins, styles and so on that you want to apply as default you can of
course do it.

Cheers,

Michele
