This is what I'm currently getting. I want to have a document with all my minutes and my idea is, that I should be able to export one heading for each meeting, so I can prepare an agenda and afterwards fill in the outcome of the discussions. > With default settings (org-export-latex-title-command "\\maketitle"), > I get the top-most headline of the marked subtree as my document title > and the next level headline as the first section.

I don't want subsections to be promoted to sections when I export the org-markup.
