I don't really grok this. Perhaps a better description of what to
do would be better. Or, maybe I'm just being stupid here, and it
makes perfect sense to everyone else.  ??

How about:

While the default paper size is configured during compilation, it can be
overridden by echoing either "A4" or "letter" to /etc/papersize.
OK.

"on the fly". Is this informal term proper for a book that is read
by many whose native language is not English? Might 'automatically'
be better than "on the fly"?

or "at runtime" ?
OK. The point is that it takes the original manual page and doesn't save the conversion result.

kludge should be replace with something more professional.

ugly hack? :)
