This was going to be my suggestion as well! In the case that a majority of the document is desired for export, #+EXCLUDE_TAGS is helpful as well. For reference: - http://orgmode.org/manual/Export-settings.html Export tags are fantastic, as one can add as many as desired and then simply change the #+select_tags/#+exclude_tags target to generate a bunch of variations from the same single .org file. Maybe a little extreme and irrelevant to the OP need(s), but I've also programmatically generated Org heading syntax with R, spit out headlines with data driven content, inserted a \newpage at the end of each, and then split them apart with stapler.[1] I was serving as a financials secretary for a group at work, managing the budgets of many chapter entities. This allowed me to start with a .csv with the target spend for the next year, use R to create a document for each chapter, and then send the chairs their tailored document vs. manually changing figures and generating ~40 documents by hand. Worked slick! If any of that sounds appealing/relevant, let me know and I can share an example.
