Now, there is an idea!  I had not tried, but yes, the are accepted and a
"multiline" macro can be defined using '\n' characters like:

#+MACRO: mimg #+HTML: <a name="$1"><center><img width="100%" src="$2.svg" alt="$3"/> $3</center></a>\n#+LATEX: \begin{figure}\label{$1}\includegraphics[width=\textwidth]{$2.pdf}\caption{$3}\end{figure}

I can now call this macro with a single line like:

{{{mimg(fig-overview,dataflow,Overview of the data flow.)}}}

and both HTML and LaTeX/PDF export produces correct output.  I give up
the "fig:" style prefix for the label, but that is a small detail.


So, I'm satisfied now.  Thanks for the nudge!
