Looks like a problem in tex4h, not Org. =A0Compiling the tex file with latex works fine, with both hyperref and savetrees included. sigh.=A0 thanks david, that was a real help. Unfortunately it's also very depressing news.=A0 as far as I can tell, both docbook2odf and tex4ht are both more or less unmaintained, docbook2rtf produces horrbly-formatted text, and html --> odt in openoffice is still fairly labour-intenxive so there is no really reliable=A0 method to get to a word-processing document from any other format.=A0 I think this does mean that I will have to write an odf exproter for org, but I fear this will take me a very long time, even with the excellent resources that exist to help me (org-export-generic, the org-export-html, and the muse odf exporter). And I don't think I can really do this before I have to produce these html documents, so for now I guess I will be hand-converting. thanks so much, though.=A0 And if anyone does make progress on an odf exporter, I do hpe you'll share it with us!=A0 thanks as always, matt HTH, =A0-- David -- OpenPGP... 0x99ADB83B5A4478E6 Jabber.... dmjena@jabber.org Email..... dmaus@ictsoc.de
