Adding pdf to the list of extensions (using customize, not editing the code at this point) enables the exporter to run to completion. This is a great step forward as I can now get a document that I can do something with. The exporter seems to be collecting the images: they end up in the actual ODT file. However, viewing the file in libreoffice shows placeholders where the images should be but with a "Read-Error" message. The captions are there but the images are empty. I guess that libreoffice cannot handle PDF images, which probably shouldn't surprise me... Now that I know what the problem is, I can see a way forward: all of my images are created within the org document using babel and I can have an alternate target of PNG for odt export. I would imagine that the easiest change in org would be to simply have an error message telling the user that PDF files cannot be used as images? Alternatively, would it be possible to invoke imagemagick to convert PDF images to PNG as we do with LaTeX snippets? Thanks for all your help on this, eric -- : Eric S Fraga (0xFFFCF67D), Emacs 25.0.50.1, Org release_8.3beta-843-ga5f1a3.dirty
