In a cousin, Centos 4.x, I can change the default paper size that 
OpenOffice uses by changing the paper size setting for the 
default printer in the "Printer configuration" program, 
invoked in the default Gnomish GUI: Applications->Systems Settings->Printer
(/usr/bin/printconf-gui)

Godwin is also correct about spadmin.
