That's because the * are exported as \alert macros in the new exporter (instead of \textbf in the old one -- for bold face). As, in the LaTeX's Beamer back-end, you have the ability to either use alert or bold face, I'd be very happy to do the same from the source Org file, using: - `*' for bold (as always), - `@' for alert (for example[1]). Though, this is not currently implemented this way, and the default has been changed between the old and the new exporters. IIRC, Nicolas' answer was to insert \textbf calls where you want such use of bold face. Or maybe overwriting one variable which would be the macro used for translation `*' characters -- but, then, you must anyway use one LaTeX macro or the other. Best regards, Seb [1] I think this is Eric Fraga's initial choice of meta-character for alert in the old exporter (using extra custom code). -- Sebastien Vauban
