You can do it in a single step with `org-odt-preferred-output-format'. See (info "(org) Extending ODT export"). > 1) Has anyone out there used org-mode to produce medical journal > articles (other than demonstration of reproducible research)? > 3) How do I get references into MS word? You can use ODT Export with JabRef using ox-jabref.el. You may want to check whether the JabRef project has layout files that can create citations in a format acceptable to Medical Journals.
