You also need to customize org-emphasis-alist. <soapbox> Not sure whether this qualifies as a bug or not. It probably does but even so, it's unlikely to be fixed and that's probably a *good* thing: IMNSHO, these interfaces are about the clunkiest to be found in org: they are very "heavy" for the result they produce. I hope the new exporter will clean up this area, even at the price of backward incompatibility (says he, knowing that any such will not affect him :-]) </soapbox> Donning my asbestos suit, Nick
