Comment 2 for bug 333953

I've just seen the reply: sorry, I missed it last summer.

Well, importing could work, indeed, but it's not like opening a PDF.
I mean, I really want to open a PDF so all objects are in their original position, and having the correct page size is also important.
What I miss is having all other Inkscape's specific options already set as I did in my template.
This is not really an issue related with PDFs, but rather a problem due to the fact that so many options are stored per document (which is not bad, by itself) and there's no way to have Inkscape get them from a different source when you open a document that does not specify them. In other words: a normal PDF will not have a unit setting, a grid definition, a current stroke width, color, caps and so on to use with tools.

I feel the problem is still open.

Thanks.
