Hi there,
I think I must be missing something.
I have a collection of articles in one org file (under separate
headings). I can export these as a subtree using Org's normal export
function as html etc., but I want to export the selected subtree as an
individual org file using the properties under each heading.)
In other words I want to export this subtree ...
* DONE Article One
:PROPERTIES:
:EXPORT_TITLE: An Interesting Article
:EXPORT_AUTHOR: Simon Jones
:EXPORT_FILENAME: an-interesting-article
:EXPORT_DATE: 2015-02-16
:END:
Article content ....
into an Org file entitled 'an-interesting-article.org' that looks like
this ...
#+TITLE: An Interesting Article
#+AUTHOR: Simon Jones
#+DATE: 2015-02-16
Article content...
Can anyone help me with this? I'm very sorry if I'm missing something
obvious.
Simon.

Change :EXPORT_FILENAME: an-interesting-article to :EXPORT_FILE_NAME:
an-interesting-article
Then,
C-c C-e C-s O o
should export to that file. I notice in the org export that the
properties are not getting exported, and even the headline is not
exported as the title though.
Here is a function that seems to do what you want.
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(defun export-subtree ()
(interactive)
(let ((fname (concat (org-entry-get (point) "EXPORT_FILE_NAME") ".org"))
(author (org-entry-get (point) "EXPORT_AUTHOR"))
(title (org-entry-get (point) "EXPORT_TITLE"))
(date (org-entry-get (point) "EXPORT_DATE"))
(content (progn (set-buffer (org-org-export-as-org nil t t))
(buffer-string))))
;; warning you can delete something unintentionally
(when (file-exists-p fname) (delete-file fname))
(find-file fname)
(insert "#+TITLE: " title "\n")
(insert "#+AUTHOR: " author "\n")
(insert "#+DATE: " date "\n")
(insert "\n" content)
;; remove properties drawer. Kind of hacky.
(goto-char (point-min))
(re-search-forward ":PROPERTIES:")
(setf (buffer-substring
(org-element-property :begin (org-element-context))
(org-element-property :end (org-element-context)))
"")
(save-buffer)))
(export-subtree)
#+END_SRC

Thanks very much for this John. As you say, the normal export "C-c C-e
C-s O o" does not work as expected. Your function exported the
properties properly, but seemed to work on the visible text only and
wouldn't export the content of headings (unless I unfold them all prior
to import). If the article was like this:
* DONE Article One
:PROPERTIES:
:EXPORT_TITLE: An Interesting Article
:EXPORT_AUTHOR: Simon Jones
:EXPORT_FILE_NAME: an-interesting-article
:EXPORT_DATE: 2015-02-16
:END:
Article content ....
** Section title
Section content
it would export as intended but without the section content. Thanks
again for your time.
Simon

I think if you change (org-org-export-as-org nil t t) to
(org-org-export-as-org nil t) you would get the section content. I
didn't test it though.

Hi Simon,
with a recent Org (>8.0) :
- load ox-org.el (require 'ox-org)
- go to your heading
- trigger the export menu with C-c C-e
- restrict to the subtree with C-s
- export as an Org file with O o
HTH,
