Hi Jambunathan, I tried emacs -Q -L /home/matt/src/org-mode/lisp -L /home/matt/src/org-mode/contrib/lisp/ but the exporter still isn't working for me. The debug log is attached -- I wanted to leave the escaped characters intact. C-h v shows that org-export-backends is in fact defined: org-export-backends is a variable defined in `org-exp.el'. Its value is (odt docbook html beamer ascii latex) but the backtrace looks to me like org doesn't quite understand that. thanks Jambunathan. matt On Thu, Jul 7, 2011 at 1:26 PM, Jambunathan K wrote: > > Matt > > Happy to hear from you. > > IIRC, You were the first ever user of org-odt.
