Remember: The program always looks in Tools, Settings, Files, Template for the current name and location of the default template.

See also the important side note under Method 2 about modifying the default template for specific tasks instead of creating a custom template for the purpose.

The former is not usually a good idea. Either use a comprehensive step-by-step guide with screen images - or -. You might want to change the current font, font size, or page margins and make them the default for all new documents, too. The changes will affect both the current document and the default template.
