Old exporter
============
If you are using org-odt.el, then you can use file local variables. I
have pushed a fix which makes string values of this variable safe.
M-x add-file-local-variable RET org-export-odt-preferred-output-format
RET "pdf" RET
Or
Add the following to your Org file. Remember to re-visit the file to
activate the newly installed value.
# Local Variables:
# org-export-odt-preferred-output-format: "pdf"
# End:
New exporter
============
The above local variable trick will fail in case of org-e-odt.el. When
I get some time I will introduce a per-buffer keyword for this variable.
