General Load/Save options
Most of the choices on the Load/Save – General page (Figure 22) are
familiar to users of other office suites. Some items of interest are
described below.
Load user-specific settings with the document
When you save a document, certain settings are saved with it. For
example, your choice (in the options for OOo Writer) of how to
update links is affected by the Load user-specific settings option.
Some settings (printer name, data source linked to the document)
are always loaded with a document, whether or not this option is
selected.
If you select this option, these document settings are overruled by
the user-specific settings of the person who opens it. If you deselect
this option, the user's personal settings do not overrule the settings
in the document.
