------- Additional comments from b...@openoffice.org Sun Sep 12 19:49:04 +0000 2010 ------- The default paper size in OO Writer is wrong. It needs to be US Letter. There needs to be a way to set the default paper size, for an entire organization, for an entire nation, and for that matter, for all the users on one computer. I googled this and found that they want us to create a "document template". >From what I understand (I don't know anything about Document Templates), Document Templates are per-user settings, but this is not a document template issue, this is the standard of paper size used in an entire nation of 300,000,000 people, another nation to the south of 100,000,000 people, and hundreds of millions more nearby. Jambing printer queues taking away many man-lives of time, wasting hundreds of forests worth of paper, and millions of barrels of oil on ink is absurd. This bug needs to be fixed. So, there needs to be a simple setting, whether an environment variable, a configuration file loaded from the installation target, or at the very least a user setting in the settings menus. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
