dear all,

wxp pro sp2, office 2005,

i want to set a preference so that each time i launch my word new document
the setting would be A4 paper, margins on top, left, right and bottom be 2.5
cm, and that its paragraph is doubly-spaced, while everything else is as
default. is there a way automate this so that i don't have to set it each
time i started a new document? and thinking further down the line - is there
a mechanism to restore default settings once i adopted this preference?

many thanks,
jes

See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customization/CustomizeNormalTemplate.htm (if
you want this for *every* document) and
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customization/CreateATemplatePart1.htm if you want
to create a specific document template. If you customize Normal.dot and want
