On the other hand it might prevent running in the too many packages trap of LaTeX. To be honest, I do not know how man people really use ConTeXt. Best Markus

Hi Markus, Markus Grebenstein wrote: Since the name of ConTeXt makes it almost impossible to search for that topic I'd like to ask you: Is there an ConTeXt exporter (planned??).

I guess it's just a question of modifying some variables, such as: - org-latex-to-pdf-process - org-export-latex-classes Search for `xelatex' for examples of customization... and share your own afterward...

Can ConTeXt handle a LaTeX program? I thought it's a completely different kettle of fish (at least, the samples that I've looked at look completely different). If so, then it's unlikely that the latex exporter can produce anything useful for it. It would need a separate exporter (but there isn't one and afaik nobody is working on one). Nick
