I am not sure how this relates to the rest of your email. Can you please expand on this? [...] > Now, I'm using org to write scientific books and articles.

What happens? This approach is basically what I use: inline tasks for the TODO elements but the rest of the structure is the paper with top level headings as sections etc. However, I note that my approach is different in that I don't hide the inline tasks when generating the article. I actually export my inline tasks using the following: #+begin_src emacs-lisp (defun org-latex-format-inlinetask (todo type priority name tags contents info) "Format an inline task element for LaTeX export." (let ((theinlinetask (concat todo " " name ": " contents))) (format "\\footnote{%s}\\marginpar{\\fbox{\\tiny\\thefootnote. %s}}" theinlinetask todo))) (setq org-latex-format-inlinetask-function 'org-latex-format-inlinetask) #+end_src Is the issue, in your case, that the noexport tag on the inlinetasks is ignored? If so, you could simply define the org-latex-format-inlinetask function I have above to do nothing? -- : Eric S Fraga (0xFFFCF67D), Emacs 25.0.50.2, Org release_8.3.1-234-g8c85c9
