I addition to what Eric S. Fraga wrote above, I suggest to have a look at the fine Org manual, which illustrates some of these concepts. You can also declare all of your configuration in a publishing environment. Regards, -- Nicolas Goaziou

It is possible through the use of #+include: and #+setupfile: directives in the document, i.e. one line pointing to where you might have defined all the meta information you mention. I actually tend to use the autoinsert package (which comes by default with Emacs) which inserts a template suitable for most of my documents whenever I visit a new file. -- : Eric S Fraga via Emacs 28.0.50, Org release_9.4.6-542-gf72a65
Org-export question from a pandoc user
Hi everyone, given the recent developments regarding the citation syntax I'm currently looking at orgmode as a writing environment again. One thing I don't understand currently: Do you have to have you export configuration in your source file or is there a way to keep your writing clean from these formatting instructions? That stuff causes a lot of overhead, and I was really happy to learn about pandoc after using LaTeX for a long time. Just to clarify what I mean: With pandoc you can add formatting information to your document metadata, but you can also use makefiles or external files that contain your settings. So, in the end your documents will only contain the contents: #+begin_src markdown --- author: Denis title: My article date: whenever it is done --- # Introduction The article starts here #+end_src The nice thing about this approach is that you can define different settings for different output formats and reuse them as appropriate. How do you do that in orgmode? Is that possible? Denis
