Hello,
when exporting buffers containing nothing or just empty lines, like:
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(with-temp-buffer
(org-mode)
(insert "")
(org-export-to-buffer 'html "*Formatted Copy*" nil nil t t))
#+END_SRC
then org-export-to-buffer throws an error:
#+BEGIN_QUOTE
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument char-or-string-p nil)
org-export-to-buffer(html "*Formatted Copy*" nil nil t t)
(progn (org-mode) (insert "") (org-export-to-buffer (quote html) "*Formatted Copy*" nil nil t t))
(unwind-protect (progn (org-mode) (insert "") (org-export-to-buffer (quote html) "*Formatted Copy*" nil nil t t)) (and (buffer-name temp-buffer) (kill-buffer temp-buffer)))
(save-current-buffer (set-buffer temp-buffer) (unwind-protect (progn (org-mode) (insert "") (org-export-to-buffer (quote html) "*Formatted Copy*" nil nil t t)) (and (buffer-name temp-buffer) (kill-buffer temp-buffer))))
(let ((temp-buffer (generate-new-buffer " *temp*"))) (save-current-buffer (set-buffer temp-buffer) (unwind-protect (progn (org-mode) (insert "") (org-export-to-buffer (quote html) "*Formatted Copy*" nil nil t t)) (and (buffer-name temp-buffer) (kill-buffer temp-buffer)))))
eval((let ((temp-buffer (generate-new-buffer " *temp*"))) (save-current-buffer (set-buffer temp-buffer) (unwind-protect (progn (org-mode) (insert "") (org-export-to-buffer (quote html) "*Formatted Copy*" nil nil t t)) (and (buffer-name temp-buffer) (kill-buffer temp-buffer))))) nil)
elisp--eval-last-sexp(nil)
eval-last-sexp(nil)
funcall-interactively(eval-last-sexp nil)
call-interactively(eval-last-sexp nil nil)
command-execute(eval-last-sexp)
#+END_QUOTE
Reason for this is located here:
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(defun org-export-to-buffer
(backend buffer
&optional async subtreep visible-only body-only ext-plist
post-process)
..
(let ((output
(org-export-as backend subtreep visible-only body-only ext-plist))
(buffer (get-buffer-create buffer))
(encoding buffer-file-coding-system))
(when (and (org-string-nw-p output) (org-export--copy-to-kill-ring-p))
(org-kill-new output))
(with-current-buffer buffer
(erase-buffer)
(setq buffer-file-coding-system encoding)
--> (insert output)
(goto-char (point-min))
(and (functionp post-process) (funcall post-process)))
(when org-export-show-temporary-export-buffer
(switch-to-buffer-other-window buffer))
buffer)))
#+END_SRC
In the explained case the output is nil. This gives the error.
With kind regards,
Stefan
