As far as I understand I should be able to set the default font and font size in the main.xcd file
The only problem is that Im not sure what the format should be... :(

I tried the template way. I created a template and copied it to every machine via a script. It does not seem to get used though. I think I need to tell every installation that it should use this file as the default template. How would this be done? Also in the main.xcd file?

Hi :)
There is a folder called "templates" in the user-profile
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/UserProfile
but there seem to be other weird places too and i am not sure which is used and 
whether any of them are not used.  Looking in

Tools - Options - Paths

You can see that the templates path is has a few different alternatives rather 
than just one but did not seem to include the path to the folder in the 
user-profile!

Aaaargh!!  Is it easy enough to add an extra path?
Regards from
Tom :)

Yes all these users are using different flavours of Windows
Can you push a template out over your network? I am not sure of the exact 
location of the template folder, but should be similar for all the Windows 
machines (I use Linux). I would look for LO in the Program folder and navigate 
to the template folder. You could have a problem with 32 and 64 bit locations.

Hi,

I need to change the default margins and font in Libreoffice Writer and Calc

How can I do this without having to go and do it manually on every PC?

Where is the user data stored? If on a server, create a new default template 
and update the appropriate file in each user folder (or alternately change the 
default template location). If locally, I do not have a good idea.

Also, what OS's are involved, I assume Windows.
