I agree. I tried this with a relatively simple export, albeit with tables and figures and references, and pandoc choked on the latex and I was not able to figure out what the problem was. > Pick a workflow that has minimum dependencies - even if that means > throwing Emacs out the Windows. For collaboration it is actually easier to do just that. Keep all of your R files and latex files in the directory and pound out the draft in odt/doc. Now trying org as a 'master' document to hold the latex (only tikz, no other reason to use at this point) and R code. I can easily produce draft documents in odt -> doc for collaborators. The challenge will be the references on a unix computer. For mac and windows I don't think it is a problem at that point. A 'more mature' markdown exporter would help for medical writing. Aric
