Hi, Consider the following example: * h1 foo[fn:1] * Footnotes [fn:1] if \alpha $\beta$ \(\gamma\) Narrow it to h1 and export the buffer. Something like this is exported: foo\footnote{if \alpha \beta \gamma} Somehow org-export-get-footnote-definition "knows about" math-blocks for footnotes that are within the buffer view, but not outside. The patch fixes the above example, but I doubt it's the Right Wayᵀᴹ to fix this (i.e. there could be a more fundamental bug). —Rasmus -- Bang bang
