SYNOPSIS

       rst2odt_prepstyles FILE

DESCRIPTION

       rst2odt(1) uses a stylesheet file as a template for the ODT files it creates.  The stock styles.odt  file
       shipped  with it comes without page dimensions.  When rst2odt is run and detects that there no paper size
       is given in the stylesheet, it is automatically determined using paperconf(1).

       When editing stylesheets with OpenOffice.org Writer (or similar programs),  the  resulting  files  always
       carry  a  page  size.   rst2odt  respects  this  setting and ensures that documents processed with custom
       stylesheets look the same regardless of the host it is running on.  If  you  want  to  get  the  original
       behavior, i.e. a system-dependent paper size, you can run rst2odt_prepstyles over your custom stylesheet.
       Remember to re-run the command whenever you change the file with a word processor.
