See http://orgmode.org/manual/OpenDocumentText-export.html#OpenDocumentText-export It's relatively a reliable way to explore the capabilities of the exporter. > I got the following line in my *Messages* buffer: > > Use of MathJax is incompatible with ODT exporter.

(Very roughly) what this message tries to convey is this: If you have LaTeX fragments in your Org file you are better off using dvipng instead of MathJax. This message concerns with the following config line (implicit or explicit) --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- #+OPTIONS: LaTeX:t --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- It is also a cue to the developer that ODT and HTML exporter still needs LaTeX->MathML functionality. If it doesn't trouble you don't bother about it much. > When the odt file is loading I get a message window from LibreOffice > with a general error. Then it goes away and the file continues > loading. In my experience this typically happens when the XML is *not* well-formed. If OpenOffice thinks that it can get around to recover from the non-well-formedness, then it continues loading the file by repairing it. In othercases, OpenOffice may not be able to recover from the malformed XML and in that it case it simply says the file is corrupt and resigns from the task at hand. One thing you could do for identifying the root cause of this error is: 1. Switch to *.odt buffer (C-x n whatever.odt) 2. Open the content.xml (Hit RET on content.xml) 3. Do a C-u C-c C-n (M-x rng-first-error) You will be able to identify the error and surrounding the context which is problematic. This will help you with constructing a minimal sample that reproduces the error. > There are a few issues with merging lines and no space in between > them, but overall it looks great.
