In File Page Layout, if you change the margin and exit the dialog, when you
save the document, the changes are saved with the document.

If you change the margin and press DEFAULT in the dialog, then the changes
are written to the template and will affect all new document based on the
template as well as the document.

I setup a page layout in menu

File-page setup.

As far as I know these settings are stored in the document itself.

Now I call menu

File-page preview

and click on the preview window the button "setup..."

If I change now these settings (again): Are these changes temporary or
are they saved permanently in the document resp. are the old settings
overwritten?
