I was expecting a nicely formatted letter. Steps to reproduce: 1. starting emacs with emacs -Q and loading org-mode via the latest git head at ~/.emacs.d/plugins/org-mode (add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs.d/plugins/org-mode/lisp") (require 'org-install) (add-to-list 'load-path "/home/myles/.emacs.d/plugins/org-mode/contrib/lisp") (require 'org-e-groff) 2. open an org document containing: #+AUTHOR: Mickey Mouse #+TITLE: Example from Worg #+GROFF_CLASS: letter * FROM :FROM: Joe Smith 00 Street City, ST, 00000 * TO :TO: Maria Rivera Urbanizacion Palma Lejos Calle 22, Bloque A, Numero 10 Ciudad, ES, 00000 * BODY :BODY: letter content * Copy to :NS: Jill Brown 3. M-x org-e-groff-export-to-pdf 4. open the resulting pdf Can anyone see where I may be going wrong? Thanks, Myles
