Hi Gary,

What did you think of the suggestion I made?

http://article.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/37408

I believe it pointed you in the right direction. You need to (a) find
the variables that control the export behavior in question, and (b) set
those variables in your .emacs. My reply gave a source of many of the
relevant variables, i.e. the default value of the variable
`org-export-plist-vars'. An example of one of those variables is

[...]

> As an example, I *never* want to export the creator line.

`org-export-creator-info'.

Let us know if you have trouble finding the appropriate variable for
something, or if setting the variables isn't behaving the way you want.
