This is a great help, thanks. Will pull and try it tonight.
I suppose I must be using the old exporter, since the variable without -e- enabled PDF conversion. That's working fine for me, but I should probably look into the new exporter (assuming the old one will be removed sometime). Good to know how to do it in both cases.
Thanks again!

Hi,
I have one particular org file that I would like to export to PDF by way of ODT. (I already set up outline styling in LibreOffice and I would like to use that, instead of trying to reconfigure a similar look in LaTeX. For fun, I did try the LaTeX pdf export and the output format is not what I need for this case.)
But I may want to export other org files to ODT *without* converting them to PDF.
http://orgmode.org/manual/Extending-ODT-export.html
This says I can customize the org-export-odt-preferred-output-format variable. This works beautifully, but it's a global setting that will apply to every ODT export.
So my question is -- is there any export option for the preferred format, per file? Something like:
#+ODT_PREFERRED_FORMAT: pdf
I couldn't find any documentation in the ODT export section of the manual for an option like this.
Alternately, I suppose I could write a lisp function that would set the variable and call the export, but that would definitely be a hack.
Thanks in advance,
hjh

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.

I was wrong about the new exporter - org-e-odt.el.
I didn't realize I need to change variable name. One should use the new
`org-e-odt-preferred-output-format' instead.

Note that Org provides a BIND mechanism for such cases.
So, adding:
#+BIND: org-e-export-opt-preferred-output-format "pdf"
somewhere in the buffer should be enough.
