I haven't found this command. You can set the default units to cm in

everywhere. I'm afraid we're stuck with inches for now.

I had the same problem: http://www.flickr.com/photos/duq/3936163541/
The solution seems to be to add these lines at the start of the file:
0 !LPUB RESOLUTION GLOBAL 150 DPI
0 !LPUB PAGE SIZE GLOBAL 8.2600 5.8450
Change resolution and page size to your own preferences but setting them
explicitly at the start of the file will solve this issue.

That's my experience too. LPub seems to work hard for a while but doesn't save
anything.

See above.
I've found another issue:
On a multi-step page the PLI is stuck to the top left corner no matter what you
do. I've tried right-click > Move and selected various positions, I've tried
margins, I've tried drag and drop, I've tried manually adding meta commands but
it won't move. To make matters worse the top and left of the PLI are falling off
the page, in pdf more so than in png.

Ronald
