This is an excellent catch. Not sure how this slipped by over the months
but I will fix this ASAP.

To set the paper size in a particular document, add the following to the
document header:

#+CONTEXT_HEADER: \setuppapersize[A4]

The following code will create a "Snippet" for a4 paper size:

(add-to-list
 'org-context-snippets-alist
 '("paper-a4" . "\\setuppapersize[A4]")
 t)

You can then add the setup command to a document with the following:

#+CONTEXT_SNIPPETS: paper-a4

The following will change the settings for the article template:

(let ((article-preset
       (cdr (assoc "article" org-context-presets-alist))))
  (plist-put article-preset :snippets
             (cons "paper-a4" (plist-get article-preset :snippets))))


Alternatively, the article template can be modified without declaring
a snippet first with the following:

(let ((article-preset
       (cdr (assoc "article" org-context-presets-alist))))
  (plist-put article-preset :literal
             (concat (plist-get article-preset :literal)
                     "\n\\setuppapersize[A4]")))

Specific bugs like the table of contents setting probably belong in the
github tracker. General questions like "how do I change to A4 paper"
could go either way.


Thank you for the feedback!
