The following seems to create the LaTeX code you wanted: > #+attr_latex: :options {0.7\textwidth} #+begin_minipage > #+CAPTION: looooooong caption. [[file_path]] > #+end_minipage That is strange, as it actually should not work (it still doesn't for me with your code). However, I had made a mistake in my original post as I meant to have the minipage environment inside the floating figure environment in the output, as in: ---<--------------------cut here---------------start------------------->--- \begin{figure}[htbp] \centering \begin{minipage}{0.5\textwidth} \includegraphics[width=\textwidth]{FILE_PATH} \caption{\label{ORG_LABEL}Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit.} \end{minipage} \end{figure} ---<--------------------cut here---------------end--------------------->--- which does compile fine. Apologies for the confusion this may have caused. The previous post by Juan Manuel did provide a neat solution, which I'll be tweaking to implement this as I never need captions running across the whole page for figures using much less. -- Seb
