I've been trying to put a special symbol inside a bracket, e.g. air temperature (degree Celsius) and the symbol should look like ^{\circ}C in org file. It works well if it is standalone. However, when I put the brackets out of it, say (^{\circ}C), the pdf output looks bizarre. I have checked the tex output and the converting results from orgmode file are ^{\circ}C --> $^{\circ}$C (^{\circ}C) --> (^\{\circ}C) Keith
