When I follow that route I'll have to do more work I guess: 1. either I have to provide two versions of my org-latex-classes (one for numbered and one for un-numbered cases) 2. or I have to provide a filter or sth similar to replace sections with mysections, correct? That's why I would prefer to follow Nick's suggestion. Regards, Andreas
