Export options for subheadings

Export options for subheadings

Hello,

I'm having a problem getting the export options for single subtree to work.
 I'm exporting to pdf.  I'm not sure the information in the manual applies
to the new exporter (since I'm not sure C-c @ applies anymore... I've tried
it, and get the same results as putting the cursor on the subheading, and
doing C-c C-e C-s l p.  I've attached a test file.  The export ignores the
EXPORT_FILE_NAME, EXPORT_TITLE, and EXPORT_DATE in the subtree.

It may well be a problem with my configuration, so if it's working y'all,
please let me know and, if you have suggestions about possible
configuration problems, I'd appreciate hearing them.

Thanks,
Jerry

From the manual:

"When exporting only a single subtree by selecting it with C-c @ before
calling an export command, the subtree can overrule some of the file's
export settings with properties EXPORT_FILE_NAME, EXPORT_TITLE, EXPORT_TEXT
, EXPORT_AUTHOR, EXPORT_DATE, and EXPORT_OPTIONS."

Indeed, marking a subtree with C-c @ don't trigger subtree export anymore.

For some reason, your manual is out of date. You can have a look at the
one published on the Org site.

You are confusing keywords and node properties. On the previous
headline, use C-c C-e, toggle subtree export with C-s, then call # RET
to see what should be inserted instead.
