For now yes -- the custom format in your Emacs buffer is just an
overlay, the real text under this overlay still uses the default 
format.  And the exporter uses this default format.

This is the kind of shortcomings that we hope we can solve with
the new exporter -- but this needs a lots of rewriting.

HTH,
