I've only just installed Star Office 5, and I really object to the way
that Letter size is the default. I've yet to find a way to change the
default to A4 (though it shouldn't be necessary, coming from a
European company.)
Also (attention Lenz!) the SuSE 6.0 manual (in 3.13.1: Configuring
your printer) says "'Paper size' will usually be Letter". Apart from
the fact that the screen dump shows 'A4', this should read "usually
A4". Letter size is peculiar only to the US.
