Do you still have this error? Yes. The following minimal example does not export with my configuration. #+begin_src org ,#+macro: title The actual title ,#+title: @@latex:\fbox{@@ {{{title}}} @@latex:}@@ ,#+options: toc:nil num:nil ,* heading And some text follows. #+end_src I have not tried with emacs -Q. I will do so if this example works fine for you. Thanks, eric -- Eric S Fraga via Emacs 27.0.50, Org release_9.1.7-475-g3ffc7d
