Sorry, I found the references after the mail. It is exactly as you said, valid. However, and I may be getting something else incorrectly, pdflatex has problems with those as it works out of the box (C-c C-e l o in org), since internal links are broken and the ToC is not generated. It seems a special export case and it's documented, just not obvious for the begginer. > num:t tells org to export numbered headlines so the * won't be there in > that case. With that option, it works wonderfully. :))) Thanks a lot... -- eduardo mercovich Donde se cruzan tus talentos con las necesidades del mundo, ahí está tu vocación.
