That was the correct pointer. org-odt-styles-file is indeed nil, and org-odt-styles-dir is pointing to the wrong directory! I gather that it is derived from org-odt-styles-dir-list. That list contains the correct directory, but only at the third position. <------- short excurs on org odt styles ------------ I install orgmode from git using $ make up1; make install. I have in my local.mk ,---- | # Where local software is found | prefix = /home/andreas/local/emacs/org-mode-install | | # Where local lisp files go. | lispdir= $(prefix)/lisp | | # Where local data files go. | datadir = $(prefix)/etc/ `---- But still the correct folder /home/andreas/local/emacs/org-mode-install/etc/styles/ is only at the fourth position in org-odt-styles-dir-list: ,---- | org-odt-styles-dir-list is a variable defined in `ox-odt.el'. | Its value is | ("/usr/share/emacs/etc/org/styles/" "/usr/share/emacs/etc/org/styles/" "/home/andreas/local/emacs/etc/styles/" "/home/andreas/local/emacs/org-mode-install/lisp/etc/styles/" "/usr/share/emacs/24.3/etc/org/") `---- (The third entry is even a non-existent directory.) Isn't that supposed to be set automagically during the install process? I have now a (setq org-odt-styles-dir "/home/andreas/local/emacs/org-mode-install/etc/styles") in my .emacs Is that the correct fix here? -------- short excurs on org odt styles -------------> > If you open it and search for `OrgFirstPage' or > `OrgTitlePage', what do you find? > In the correct style file I see OrgFirstPage now.

I do not always use a real date here (but sometimes also sth like '3rd meeting of ...'). But that is not a real problem -- I can easily restrict myself to using real dates only. >> [...] >> >>>>> 8.
