Title:
  Margins are not correct for letter - 2cm vs 1in

Status in The OpenOffice.org Suite:

Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu:

Status in “openoffice.org” package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: openoffice.org

  Since as long as I can remember, OOo has been set by default to A4
  paper size and A4 margins, regardless of what your locale is. My
  LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8" (along with every other LC_*), but OOo doesn't
  pay attention. Additionally, it is really complicated (comparatively)
  to actually change the default margins to 1" (the standard in the US),
  having to mess around with "Organize Templates" et cetera--but I
  shouldn't have to anyway.

  OOo should pay attention to the current locale and update accordingly,
  like every other application.
