There may be easier and/or more correct ways. And perhaps the ODT exporter could use a preamble option like the HTML exporter has. But this should work, more or less. The trick is to put your header in an actual header in the style template, a page header that will only be shown on the first page. This works because header contents are included with the page style. So try making a style template again: 1. Export your document and open in Open-/LibreOffice. 2. Modify the styles to your heart's content. Hint: You may want to make the Title and Subtitle styles hidden (Modify Paragraph Style > Font Effects tab > check Hidden). Or you may skip this step for now and come back later. 3. Give the first page the page style OrgFirstPage. 4. Do Insert > Header > OrgFirstPage. 5. Put the content you want in the header, inserting the appropriate fields: #+begin_example > ,---- > | Some fixed text here +------------------+ > | | [Insert>Picture] | > | +------------------+ > | > | Some fixed text > | [Insert>Field>Author] > | Some more fixed text > | > | [Insert>Field>Date] > | > | [Insert>Field>Title] > | Some Subtitle > | > `---- #+end_example 6. Save the template. 7. Try exporting with the path to the template in ODT_STYLES_FILE. (Actually, if you're going to include a logo or other picture, it gets a little more involved. You will need to include both the path to the template and the relative paths to "styles.xml" and the image file inside it, as described in the manual.) 8. If you don't see your custom header in the exported document, you may have to put the first page in OrgFirstPage style manually. (Not sure how to make this happen automatically.) 9. Following the header, you will still have the usual preamble with title, date, and if you haven't turned it off, the authorname. If you have made the Title and Subtitle styles hidden (step 2 above), they will be invisible in print. If not, you will need to delete them manually. Hope this helps? Yours, Christian
