Of course it is, but OP is referring to features of some software that I don't have access to, so how am I supposed to make sense of it? I'm not going to (i) install a new OS; and (ii) buy/torrent software to understand and test a feature in named software.

Please give an example of how to specify the language, or an example of a way to test it that can be done easily from GNU/Linux. With emacs -q and Org 8.3, and a document with "#+LANGUAGE: da" I get: $> exiftool test.pdf | grep -i lang Language : Danish —Rasmus -- Send from my Emacs
