In the same function: (lambda () (if (not inline?) (delete-region (point) (search-forward "]")) (delete-region (point) (search-forward ":" nil t 2)) (delete-region (1- (point-max)) (point-max)) (when (re-search-forward "\n[ \t]*\n" nil t) (user-error "Inline definitions cannot contain blank lines")) ;; If footnote reference belongs to a table, make sure to ;; remove any newline characters in order to preserve ;; table's structure. (when (org-element-lineage definition '(table-cell)) (while (search-forward "\n" nil t) (replace-match ""))))) LaTeX fragments should not break paragraphs, or tables. So you need to prevent inserting blank lines, or even newlines characters in the case of tables. Regards,
