Stylesheets are already selective in what they save, so maybe they could select just a little bit more? Eg. x- and y- thumbnail gaps take a bit of experimenting to get right (the x-gaps for different labels I use are 2.1mm and 2.7mm respectively) and, since they're tied to their particular document formats, they seem to be exactly the sort of things a stylesheet should remember.
But OP doesn't know anything about x and y thumbnail gaps. They're something that whoever wrote the particular print format invented.
As has actually happened (OK once) someone can come along and add new parameters to a print format.
Maybe you could just create an empty document and use it instead of a stylesheet.Yes, that's what I must do, but then what's the point of stylesheets?
For some people stylesheets make things simpler, but when you look hard at them they're not doing much.
Perhaps instead there could have been a "save empty document" option.However they do have some effects. For example they flag that a new document has been created, so the file name is not inherited.
