From documentation on exporting:
The exporter recognizes special lines in the buffer which provide
additional information. These lines may be put anywhere in the file.
There are even some examples where all this stuff goes into the last
level 1 heading, which is marked as COMMENT.
Or you can send the whole preamble to an external file and just add a
reference with #+SETUPFILE

Hi John,
I do this rotutinely without problems. I put all my #+ lines under a
heading named something like "Org config" and tagged with :noexport:. I
put it at the end of the file, where it is out of the way.
In fact I will stick my neck out and suggest that that should be the
norm for Worg files; in my opinion it is very ugly to start off a file
with a mass of technical configuration lines starting #+. The title,
author and date should be there; not most of the other stuff. Org is
about focusing on content.
However,

I don't think that bit of LaTeX code is going to make it into your
exported output, because the heading is tagged :noexport:. The #+ lines
are fine though.

Thanks Dan and Juan.
So far everything has seemed to work, though a few odds and ends occurred --
I'm going to try moving to the end of the file and see if that helps. I
think I had to remove the headline, C-c C-c to get a modified option to
"take" and then could re-add the headline. I might be wrong about needing to
do that. I'll fiddle some more. Thanks for the #+setupfile tip!
John
