As far as I can tell, this isn’t easy to accomplish with the current
implementation. The paper size is specified in
/usr/share/pyshared/docutils/writers/odtwriter/styles.odt, together with
stylesheets, margins, and header/footer separation. If you want to
create a document with a different page style, feel free to copy
styles.odt, open the copy with OpenOffice.org, change everything as you
like, and call rst2odt --stylesheet-path $STYLES_FILE. I also do this
for some documents of mine.
I’m not sure whether I even like the idea of reading /etc/papersize,
since this could lead to a different .odt file being produced on
different hosts. Probably Dave has a different idea on this topic.
Cheers,
