I've found a bug on main that I think is related to the recent patches about raw string objects. Try this as Basic.bib: @book{friends, title = {{{LaTeX}} and Friends}, author = {van Dongen, M.R.C.}, date = {2012}, location = {Berlin}, publisher = {Springer}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-642-23816-1}, isbn = {9783642238161} } And then this as basic.org: # ---------- #+bibliography: Basic.bib #+cite_export: basic plain numeric [cite:@friends] #+print_bibliography: # ---------- Exporting to text, HTML or ODT works, but trying with LaTeX gives this error: mapconcat: Wrong type argument: stringp, (raw nil #("van Dongen, M.R.C." 0 18 (:parent #0))) Thanks, Bill -- William Denton https://www.miskatonic.org/ Librarian, artist and licensed private investigator.
