I would call the suggested template as a workaround.

The problem lies in the fact that OO scales the content regardless. 
If this is intended behaviour, then OO is seriously lacking in printing
options. As I mentioned, not having the choice between "fit" and "actual size"
is one of the problems. 

As a comparison, I generated a PDF from the example document, with page size
7.5x11cm. I was able to open it in Acrobat Reader and print it as brochure on
A4, while the content retained it's proper size.
