hi all!

while working nicely for plain text I realized that macros are not expanded
if put in #+ATTR_LATEX:

e.g. I defined

#+MACRO: image_width 16

and wanted to use this macro like

#+ATTR_LATEX: :center :placement [H] :width {{{image_width}}}cm

however, in the exported tex file I get:

\includegraphics[width={{{image_width}}}cm]{test.png}

is that intentional that macro expansion works only for plain text?

thanks, jo

Yes. Macro are only expanded where one can find plain text. See "11.6
Macro replacement" in Org manual.
