So, it looks like these fine details are out of interest for ox-man.el library. I see no good way to do it automatically. Users can always use direct markup injection like @@man:\,@@ if they need to fine-tune the man output. --=20 Ihor Radchenko // yantar92, Org mode maintainer, Learn more about Org mode at .
