Well I installed emacs as you did and still didn't work but if I use your configuration file it works fine and exports. I like the features for org-mode so I might merge some of the things in my setup files and just use your configuration. What's the best way to get it as the default on macbook? I know I can link the init.el to .emacs but how do I make sure it knows where the jmax folder resides on the system.

How did you install emacs?

You can see how I do it here:

this has worked for me for a long time.
