Problem with PROPERTIES :OPTIONS: when exporting subtree

Problem with PROPERTIES :OPTIONS: when exporting subtree

[Rainer M Krug]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1284 bytes --]

Hi

I hava a problem with exporting to LaTeX.

I want to export a table to latex. I put it into a subtree, containing only
the table, i.e. no headers, as I want to include it into another document. I
thought, that using the :OPTIONS: property, I can disable the headers - but
it does not seem to be working - am I missing something?

For a small example, see below. The resulting pdf is attached.

version: Org-mode version 7.01trans (release_7.01h.514.g878d)

Thanks,

Rainer

Well - As it says in the org manual in  12.2 Export options,
author:
turn on/off inclusion of author name/email into exported file

timestamp: turn on/off inclusion creation time into exported file
etc.

So I effectively expected that I don't have a header, no toc and no
timestamp. So effectively (what I would like to have) only the second page
(the table) of the pdf.

Should have read:
So effectively (what I would like to have) everything below "Contents", i.e.
only the table as a pdf.

I believe the relevant property is :EXPORT_OPTIONS:.

,----[ (info "(org) Export options") ]

Is it correct that you are trying to disable author, table-of-contents,
etc.? If so, I believe these can be turned off with the nil option:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
* Table of Parameter

The parameters are as follow:
** The Table
:PROPERTIES:
:EXPORT_FILE_NAME: table
:EXPORT_OPTIONS: H:0 num:nil toc:nil author:nil timestamp:nil creator:nil
:END:
| A | B |  C |
|---+---+----|
| 1 | 2 | 33 |
|   |   |    |
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8----

Have you considered radio tables? It's a nice solution for including an
org-mode table in a LaTeX document.

Best,
Matt

Yes - I looked into them, but I don't get them to work. Do you have an org
file with a radio table so that I can see it?

Actually, I don't think they would do what I want:  want to save the table
as LaTeX to a file and use it in a different program (LyX), so that I can
update the table while I am working on my simulation, and that when I open
LyX, I always have the up-to-date version for the paper I am writing.

Cheers,

Rainer

There's a nice example in the manual:

(info "(org) A LaTeX example")

Ah, then they wouldn't work in this scenario. Radio tables allow you to
use the minor mode orgtbl to edit org-mode tables within a commented
section of a source file (e.g., LaTeX, html) and then to place the
"exported" table at a target location within the same file.

It would, however, be very nice to be able to send the results or a
source code block (either executed code or exported org snippets) via
babel to a target in an external file.

Best,
Matt

Yes - I will raise that point in a new thread.

Thanks a lot for your help,
