We've had a lot of complaints from people who print our PDFs about our

the LibreOffice template in the more common portrait design with fonts
to suit.

So, my question: should we also change the OOo template? This is a good
time to do it, while updating all the docs to V3.3. Yes, I know we're in
the middle of updating to the latest 2-up template, but only a subset of
the docs have been done, and they are all still in draft, so...

My vote is yes, to change the OOo template now, along with everything
else that's going on. I was going to recommend doing it soon anyway,
while we're setting files up for reusing material. I've been holding off
a bit because Clayton's been working on a template for the developer
docs, and we've been talking about the pros and cons of bringing the
user guides into a similar look as the developer docs. The changes I
would make now would go along with that.

Comments?

The work I was doing on the template kind of got sidelined by other projects. My goal with the template was to harmonize the styles so the export from Wiki went a little smoother... You can find the template concept here:
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/File:OOoTemplate.odt

A lot has changed since I last worked on the template... this template was still in the idea stage when I last worked on it, and had not really been combined with the OOoAuthors styles.
