Hi,

I'm having a .tex-file named style.tex which contains the following:

 > \usepackage{xspace}
 > \newcommand{\cA}{\ensuremath{\mathcal{A}}\xspace}

I'm including this file into my org-file with

 > #+LATEX_HEADER: \input{style}

Now, when I type sth. like this:

 > Inside normal text \cA just works fine.

But when I want to add superscripts to that A:

 > Now adding a superscript to \cA^n because I need it.

In the pdf-Output there is a space between the superscript and the A. 
That is because of the latex-export does sth like:

 > \ensuremath{\mathcal{A}}$^n$

Is there some workaround for that behaviour?

Best regards, Max

      Because I forgot to cc: the list (I tend to do that on a regular basis:
      apologies).

      I don't think that's possible: it would require a parser of far greater
      complexity.
