org: Export back-ends
12.2 Export back-ends
=====================
An export back-end is a library that translates Org syntax into a
foreign format. An export format is not available until the proper
back-end has been loaded.
By default, the following four back-ends are loaded: ‘ascii’, ‘html’,
‘icalendar’ and ‘latex’. It is possible to add more (or remove some) by
customizing ‘org-export-backends’.
Built-in back-ends include:
• ascii (ASCII format)
• beamer (LaTeX Beamer format)
• html (HTML format)
• icalendar (iCalendar format)
• latex (LaTeX format)
• man (Man page format)
• md (Markdown format)
• odt (OpenDocument Text format)
• org (Org format)
• texinfo (Texinfo format)
Other back-ends might be found in the ‘contrib/’ directory (
Installation).
