If you want a clean template you have to purge all these of any defaults that are set for (at least) these eight container types: Page Layouts (Body, Master and Reference) , Paragraph Formats , Character Formats , Table Formats , Object Styles , Color Definitions , User Variable Definitions , Cross-ref Formats

Ah, I was just about there, but had missed the Object Styles. (Well, I don't have any, but I didn't even remember to look.)

An oddity I found that might help someone else: to get to the custom "Running H/F <n>" variables, you have to be viewing the master pages.

I also found (by saving as MIF and opening the MIF in a text editor) that there were entities for the PDF Job Options and for several <BookComponent> elements (a LOR, a lingering alphabetical list of the paragraphs that I'd deleted via FrameMaker's GUI, a TOC). So I deleted them from the MIF and, in FrameMaker, saved the MIF as the "template_empty" FM file to use as the basis for "focused templates", such as for conditions and doc titles.

Thanks for confirming the list of objects to "clean",
-Monique
