[libreoffice-users] RE: Default printer issues in Writer

Thanks Mark.  I checked that setting, and it doesn’t seem to make a difference whether that setting 
is checked or not.

I also noticed that all of these files are MS Word .doc files, as opposed to the LibreOffice format 
(I believe that is .ODF).

Thanks,

Also, in options>load/save there is a tick box "Load Printer settings
