You can set the default paper-size with a -d option in the LP command line. See p10 of the "Usage" manual (2.19.80 page ref.).
That works perfect from the command line. Is it possible to get Frescobaldi to apply this option when running LilyPond? I tried modifying the LilyPond command in the preferences to add this option, but that appears to break the ability of Frescobaldi to find and run LilyPond properly.
BTW My experience is that A4 is the default paper size and I never gave it any thought until the folks surrounding me talked about °F, inches, pounds (weight) and letter paper. So there might be a locale setting that's overriding things.
That may be. A4 and Letter are close enough that I wouldn't have necessarily noticed the difference when examining the draft on the screen.
