Hello,

I have a small patch for `org-preview-latex-process-alist' making
the default setting for LaTeX source block evaluation be running
latex three times (instead of the current one). It is sometimes
necessary to run latex more than once to produce the final
document, a phenomenom described in the docstring for
`org-latex-pdf-process' which itself runs latex three times by
default. This patch just brings the former variable into parity
with the latter.

Subject: [PATCH] lisp/org.el (org-preview-latex-process-alist): Run latex
 multiple times

* lisp/org.el (org-preview-latex-process-alist): Run latex three
times by default

It is sometimes necessary to run latex more than once against a
given .tex file; something ably explained in the docstring for
`org-latex-pdf-process', which exports LaTeX by running latex
three times (by default). This patch brings
`org-preview-latex-process-alist' into parity with that variable,
running latex three times by default when previewing LaTeX.

Thanks for the patch!
May you please describe a use case when it is necessary to run latex
multiple times for previews?

CCing Timothy and Kathik - I see that
https://code.tecosaur.net/tec/org-mode/src/branch/dev/lisp/org-latex-preview.el#L102
still uses a single compiler invocation.

Sure: it's required whenever you have LaTeX that refers to
other document elements whose positions are only known after
they've been typeset. This often comes up with bibliographies; to
quote the docstring for `org-latex-pdf-process': "The reason why
this is a list is that it usually takes several runs of
‘pdflatex’, maybe mixed with a call to ‘bibtex’."

I personally encountered it when using the tikzmark library from
the tikzpicture package to draw  annotations on a table (LaTeX
needed to be run once to typeset the table & only then did it
"know" where the arrows needed to be drawn).

Oh-- and it's not just previews (sorry if I gave that
impression)-- it's also required for "evaluating" LaTeX source
blocks.

This makes more sense. I hardly imagine previews that will require
running latex multiple times. Such previews would be broken anyway,
because they have no access to the document context.

May you please add a code comment explaining why multiple invocations
are needed, referring to ob-latex? Also, please link to this thread form
the commit message. Finally, you may need to add TINYCHANGE cookie at
the bottom of the commit message if you do not have FSF copyright
assignment (see https://orgmode.org/worg/org-contribute.html#first-patch)

I suspect it may make the LaTeX preview feature unacceptably slow for 
documents heavily loaded with math snippets. There was a proposal to use 
LuaLaTeX instead of PdfLaTeX to provide better Unicode coverage, but it 
was discarded due to significant slowdown.

If it is true then it should not be active by default. It makes sense as 
a user option, but I am unsure concerning required efforts.

Then, we may instead use latexmk - it will run latex as many times as
necessary.

Also, performance will be less problematic after Timothy and Karthik
merge their latex preview branch. (they may want to do measurements
though).

Sorry I have no experience with latexmk. At least a fallback should be 
available if this script is not installed.

The LaTeX preview feature is close to dangerous per se. With latexmk the 
barrier may be even lower. Some users may have -shell-escape enabled in 
latexmk configuration. I hope, it is not possible to force latexmk 
execute something weird by spitting a crafted message into logs.

I have no idea how to enable preview for trusted files only without 
ruining usability.

Should we perhaps have different variables for preview & Org
source block evaluation?

Likely yes.

In fact, ob-latex is making use of `org-preview-latex-process-alist'
only in a single cond branch in `org-babel-execute:latex' - when we have
:file foo.png

However, that branch assumes that `org-preview-latex-default-process' is
'dvipng (the default value). If one changes it to, say dvisvgm, the
generated image will not be a .png image:

(setq org-preview-latex-default-process 'dvisvgm)

#+begin_src latex :results file link :file test.png
x^2
#+end_src

#+RESULTS:
[[attachment:test.png]]

^ This is actually an svg image, renamed to "test.png".

So, it makes sense for `org-babel-execute:latex' to override
`org-preview-latex-default-process' temporarily, to something actually
generating .png file.

Sorry-- got sidetracked by something else. I see what you
mean. OK, so the proposal is: change the ".png" branch in
`org-babel-execute:latex' to override `org-preview-process-alist'
with something that will:

  - actually produce a PNG formatted file
  - by default, run latex more than once, tho this could of
  - course be customized

Oh-- and pass `processing-type' to `org-create-formula-image' 
explicitly.

I assume this is a general example of a situation where you have to run
LaTeX multiple times, and not something applicable to Org's LaTeX
previews.

Was this for in-buffer previews or a LaTeX source block?  Could you
provide the LaTeX source for a minimal example?  I'd like to try it with
the new preview system.
