Thanks for the solution.

This is the second time in a row I've been referred to the original
exporter announcement. I'm sorry that my questions are so basic, but I
put off switching to 8.0 because my understanding of how org and Emacs
work is not very deep and I know little elisp. Once I have things set
up, I leave them alone and get to work. I'm very grateful to this list
for helping me figure out things that, in hindsight, are obvious.
