 Hello,
Changing from emacs on WSL (linux on windows) to emacs on MS-Windows, I had
to change in my org-mode files some paths from : "/mnt/d/path/to/file" to
"d:/path/to/file/".
Doing this breaks the export to LaTeX. Here is a minimum example org file
showing the issue when exported (the lines of codes with columns after
"#+LATEX_HEADER:" do not exports to the LaTeX file).

Thanks in advance,  Olivier

#+LATEX_CLASS: article
#+LATEX_CLASS_OPTIONS: [a4paper]

#+LATEX_HEADER:\newcommand{\macroOne}{drive:/windows-path/to/file1}
#+LATEX_HEADER:\newcommand{\macroTwo}{drive/windows-path/to/file1}
#+LATEX_HEADER:\newcommand{\macroThree}{:nothing}
#+LATEX_HEADER:anything:with:columns

* Problem description

This line of code does not export to  =LaTeX=
#+begin_example
#+LATEX_HEADER:\newcommand{\macroOne}{drive:/windows-path/to/file1}
#+end_example
while this one
#+begin_example
#+LATEX_HEADER:\newcommand{\macroTwo}{drive/windows-path/to/file1}
#+end_example
is exported as expected with a line like this in the =LaTeX= file:

#+begin_export latex
\texttt{\MacroTwo}
#+end_export

It seems that the presence of any column (=:=) after =#+LATEX_HEADER:=
breaks the export which is an issue on =MS-Windows= for defining paths.

Here is my config:

Hello,
I think I have found the reason for the issue and I can reformulate the
situation like this:
"the presence of any column after #+LATEX_HEADER: breaks the export* if
there is no blank space* between #+LATEX_HEADER:and the
rest of the line."
This only applies to* emacs running on MS-Windows* since the absence of
space caused not problem with my previous emacs (GNU Emacs 27.2 (build 1,
x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.24.20, cairo version 1.16.0) with Org
mode version 9.6 (9.6-??-e7ea951 @
/home/olivier/.emacs.d/.local/straight/build-27.2/org/).

Conclusions
- I should have better looked at section 17.8
<https://orgmode.org/manual/In_002dbuffer-Settings.html> of the manual to
see that one space is always present after the column and the word
- Maybe the first sentence of this section should be changed like this to
stress on this detail:
" In-buffer settings start with ‘#+’, followed by a keyword, a colon, *a
blank space* and then a word for each setting."

Best regards,     Olivier

Thanks for reporting!

No space is not strictly prohibited, but if there is no space, we
consider the last colon to be the end of keyword name.

I'd say that we should suggest to use space everywhere yet keeping the
present behaviour for backwards compatibility.

I have amended the manual as you suggested.
Fixed.
