It seems the @@latex: @@ and @@odt: @@ does not work for lists or paragraphs with blank lines. For instance

@@odt:
  - Xyzzy!

  - Nothing happens
@@

is exported to latex.

How can I have some paragraphs exported only by one backend?

The @@backend: @@ construct doesn't work with newlines. I think you can do something like this to get a selective export only for a particular backend, in this case html. I am not sure if you can also get other non-html formatting in this. 

#+BEGIN_EXPORT html
conditional

multi

line

paragraph
#+END_EXPORT

  • Interesting but the text is formatted as a code block

  • good point. I have edited the answer with an export block instead.

  • Is it possible to have a #+INCLUDE: "./xxx.org" in the export block? My attempt do not result as expected (#+BEGIN_EXPORT is typesetted and the include not taken into account, whatever the export mode).

  • This includes the content in the block when exported to HTML, but the content is interpreted as html code. Is it possible for the content to be in org-mode syntax and exported as usual to html code? There is some content I want to export to html, but not to latex.
