Maybe instead of "presets" we could call them "profiles". So you could create profiles for different types of documents. That would be useful.

However, I'd still prefer to have the settings saved with the document. That can get in the way on occasion (no solution is perfect for all situations), but I find it more helpful in the long run since any document could require customized settings for one reason or another.

"Last used" is also helpful when you have to run the same document or type of document several times in a row.
