If so it's not part of the output and I do not agree that LaTeX has notes. There exists several packages enabling some type of notes, or exporting pdf notes. The right approach (IMO) to add e.g. pdf notes is inlinetasks and altering org-latex-format-inlinetask-function. It would be interesting to add support for pdfcomment.sty, I think. > odt format: has notes I assume you mean the comments that in recent version of Libreoffice show up on the side of the documents. Again, I don't agree that they are comments in the sense that '^#.*' is a comment. Again, I think the correct approach for adding such notes is inlinetasks. As for how to handle comments: I don't care. For me comments are a temporary state before moving to a separate "* trash :noexport:" or ARCHIVE heading. –Rasmus -- The Kids call him Billy the Saint
