Hi there,
This has come up before, but a search in the archive did not produce enough
information for me to solve the problem. I want to export to PDF via XeTex
on Mac OS X (Emacs 23.2) and org-mode 7.01g. After studying the manual and
looking at this message in the archive:

[...]
And you can customize org-export-latex-classes to make the class headers
look like this:
\TeXXeTstate=1
\usepackage{fontspec,xunicode}
\defaultfontfeatures{Numbers=OldStyle,Scale=MatchLowercase,Mapping=tex- text}
\setmainfont{Sabon LT Std}
\setromanfont[Mapping=tex-text]{Sabon LT Std}
\setsansfont[Scale=MatchUppercase]{Myriad Pro}
\usepackage{xltxtra}
[DEFAULT-PACKAGES]
[PACKAGES]
[EXTRA]
And you can change things around any way you like.

I started experimenting with customizing org-export-latex-classes. Here is
what I put into the section for article:
\TeXXeTstate=1
\usepackage{fontspec,xunicode}
\defaultfontfeatures{Numbers=OldStyle,Scale=MatchLowercase,Mapping=tex-text}
\setromanfont[Mapping=tex-text]{Hoefler Text}
\newfontfamily{\J}[Scale=0.85]{Osaka}
(I removed the following lines:
[DEFAULT-PACKAGES]
[PACKAGES]
[EXTRA])
Now, what I get with C-c C-e l at the beginning of my tex file is:
<example>
\documentclass[11pt]{article}
\TeXXeTstate=1
\usepackage{fontspec,xunicode}
\defaultfontfeatures{Numbers=OldStyle,Scale=MatchLowercase,Mapping=tex- text}
\setromanfont[Mapping=tex-text]{Hoefler Text}
\newfontfamily{\J}[Scale=0.85]{Osaka}
\usepackage{xltxtra}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{fixltx2e}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{longtable}
\usepackage{float}
\usepackage{wrapfig}
\usepackage{soul}
\usepackage{t1enc}
\usepackage{textcomp}
\usepackage{marvosym}
\usepackage{wasysym}
\usepackage{latexsym}
\usepackage{amssymb}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\tolerance=1000
</example>
There are some more lines I did not ask for and do not want, like for
example the \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} which does not work with XeTeX.
Now the number of possible relevant variables etc is just too complex for me
to understand. I would appreciate if some kind soul would explain to me how
to trim this down to use only the packages I need.
All the best,
Christian

Ain't that the truth. The new LaTeX header system is very flexible,
but it multiplies the places you can put header stuff, and because of
the way XeLaTeX headers are structured, not all of them work.
This is what I do. The following is a little hastily written. I'm
happy to come back to anything that doesn't make sense.
First, I set org-export-latex-classes like so. The relevant stanzas
are 5-7, staring with "mythesis"
Note that I explicitly exclude ORG's default set of loaded packages,
so i can include my own set.
Also note that it's a pretty small header. For some reason I couldn't
get things to work if I put all of the XeTeX header stuff in there,
nor could I get it to work by putting in a bunch of #+Latex_header
lines (or whatever their syntax is).
(setq org-export-latex-classes

Then I have the following in my thesis-header.tex file.
% Standard org stuff which I have to include by hand
% since I didn't want the other (font handling, entities) bits:
\usepackage{fixltx2e}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{longtable}
\usepackage{float}
\usepackage{wrapfig}
%\usepackage{soul}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\tolerance=1000
That seems to produce a header that works with xetex.
I haven't yet set org up to run xelatex automatically, but that's possible too.

If so, it would be good to document it in Worg.
I quickly grep'ed the Worg dir and there is no mention of XeTeX...

Noted. I'll see what I can do (but nobody be afraid to beat me to it, OK?)

Scot,
Thanks a lot, this helps a lot and is getting me on the right track.
I was getting lost in the Customize-Groups-Browser hell and now see
that I can have it much easier. Great.
And when it comes to avoiding unwanted packages, I guess
[NO-DEFAULT-PACKAGES]
is really what I was looking for.
All the best,
Christian

Aloha Christian and Scot,
I'm interested in adding a brief section describing a plain vanilla
XeTeX export to the Worg tutorial on LaTeX export: http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-latex-export.php
If one or both of you could help out by editing the Worg page directly
or by sending draft materials to me or to the list when you're
confident of a reasonable solution, I'd much appreciate it.
All the best,
Tom
