Looks interesting indeed. You're using many more LaTeX features than I
ever do and I can see how your configuration would be useful in those
cases. More examples will help in understanding when it will be useful.

Totally agree! Although, over the years, I have written many papers in
LaTeX directly, in the past

If anyone, then the IEEE. In the late 80s, their instructions to authors

Hi, here's my angle (which works for myself) how I use org-exporting in
connection with doing documents (I use in the meantime also org to
export as input for jekyll to produce HTML, but that's a different use,
the heavy lifting there is done in jekyll).
I am a LaTeX user since quite some

Two routes that I know of:
1. org -> LaTeX -> rtf using latex2rtf
2. org -> odt -> rtf by saving as that format in LibreOffice.

I'm lucky in that the vast majority of the journals I deal with accept

i tend to be situational. some things i export to html, some to pdf,
some to both. it just depends on the need of whatever small project i'm
working on.

Aloha Ypo,
"Exporting for life" is a vague target, so it is difficult to give
precise recommendations.
It is usually the case that export to LaTeX doesn't require
subsequent modification of the tex file. In most cases for my
work, I am exporting to a LaTeX document style/class provided by
is org ootb mma? for those of us who woul dlike to spend, like, zero
time exporting, and then, like, less than a half hour fixing htat one
thing that is irritating about hte output, with no errors? i can
dream.

I think the key question is: Do you want to preserve them as web pages or
page-based documents? If the web, then it's HTML; if documents, I'd use
