People,

I have also tried:

 pandoc --from=markdown --to=odt t.md -s -V papersize:a4 -o t.odt 
 pandoc --from=markdown --to=odt t.md -s -V papersize:a4 
geometry:margin=10mm -o t.odt 
 pandoc --from=markdown --to=odt t.md -s -V papersize:a4 -V 
geometry:margin=10mm -o t.odt 
 pandoc --from=markdown --to=odt t.md -V geometry:a4paper -o t.odt 
 pandoc --from=markdown --to=odt t.md -V geometry:a5paper -o t.odt 

but in LibreOffice it says that the resulting t.odt file is "Letter" even 
though it defaults to A4 mm dimensions - I can't change to A5 or get 
margins to work . .

Am I missing something?

Thanks,
Phil.

If you check the manual, you'll notice that `geometry` is listed below
the section "Variables for LaTeX". It does not apply to odt.

Use `--reference-doc` instead.
