Yes, we use that ourselves constantly.  You can chain these
references too...  ;-)

It's in the Automation chapter, in par. 27.2, "Importing settings 
from configuration templates".  Basically, you make an .ini
file that has the settings you want your config template, give
it a new name, and reference it in:

  [FDK]
  ; ConfigTemplate = path to configuration template file
  ConfigTemplate=D:/path/to/MyTemplate.ini 

Any settings in your mif2htm.ini (or mif2rtf.ini) will override
the settings in your config template, so you will want to strip
your local .ini down to the minimum you need in it.  Par. 27.2.1
gives the details on which settings to use where.
