I feel the need to tell you why I do not use your product though it is on
all three of my computers. You see I write on fanfiction.net and they offer and
advise using Open Office. The problem I found with it is a personal one but
I'm sure others would feel the same about it.
I start a project and change all the settings to be what I want them to.
These settings are usually ones I use on a regular if not daily basis. Finish
that project save it, and then perhaps start another. But I have to change all
the settings again because they do not save into the program. There are some
settings that can be saved, but I don't like to write in "pages" and have to
change the view each time. I also get really annoyed by the word suggestion
and have to turn it off EVERY time I use the program. I don't want to have to
set things up each time. I want to just open it up and be able to use it
immediately. Wordpad may not have as many features but it allows me to do that.
So until I find something that does allow me to have it the way I want it,
allowing me to just open in the program and write in a manner that is
comfortable for me, I will continue with it.
Thank you for your time.
Learn how to create/modify a default style for your document. This
will save many of your settings.

Look at the templates and styles files here.

As others have suggested, you may want to create templates that store
other settings.
Here is a link that explains the principle of styles.
