The documentation for odt export suggests that you can specify a style
file.=C2=A0 If you create this file in libreoffice with your letterhead &am= p;

If you have a template, I'd appreciate seeing it! I had = hoped maybe I could add a filter for these xml fragments, but I don't s= ee wwhich filter would be relevant!
