[Novalug] OpenOffice question

[Peter Larsen]

It all depends on your screen size. On my system it remembers the last
setting from the last use. So once set, that's what it uses next time.
If it's too big, just make the zoom level smaller.

In view, at the bottom, I click on 'zoom': it says: 200 %.

I guess I could simply make that lower, right? But, what do I
do if I want it to always start out at, say, 100 % (which seems
so logical that I never gave it any thought: why would you
want to start with anything else than 100 %?, although,
come to think of it, my xpdf starts at 125 % while I'd like
it to start at 200 %).
