My apologies for the ambiguity. I am happy with the way the block itself exports. I have a document with many such blocks interspersed throughout the document. I wanted to create an org document which contains just these blocks, and then export that document to .tex.
E.g., if I had a paper, I would like a document containing just the terms defined in the paper, and none of the rest of the content. Thanks, Stephen Thorsten Jolitz writes: > "Stephen J.
