Re: [libreoffice-users] Changing default margins and font for a group of users

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 :)

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.
