hiding billing information from generated pdf

hiding billing information from generated pdf

[Mehul Sanghvi]

I have an org file in which I will be keeping tracking of time spent
on that particular document.
This will help me with billing the client.  What I do not want to do
is to have that time tracking
information be a part of the generated PDF file.  How do I do
something like that ?


Say I have the following kind of information near the top of my file:


#+BEGIN: clocktable :maxlevel 2 :scope file
Clock summary at [2012-06-22 Fri 10:38]

| Headline     | Time     |        |
|--------------+----------+--------|
| *Total time* | *104:02* |        |
|--------------+----------+--------|
| 2012         | 104:02   |        |
| June         |          | 104:02 |
#+END:


* 2012

** June

*** [2012-06-05 Tue]                                           :late:traffic:

*** [2012-06-06 Wed]                                                   :late:
    CLOCK: [2012-06-06 Wed 09:59]--[2012-06-06 Wed 19:13] =>  9:14

*** [2012-06-07 Thu]                                        :late:late_start:
    CLOCK: [2012-06-07 Thu 10:13]--[2012-06-07 Thu 16:47] =>  6:34

*** [2012-06-08 Fri]
    CLOCK: [2012-06-08 Fri 09:50]--[2012-06-08 Fri 18:10] =>  8:20

*** [2012-06-11 Mon]                                                   :sick:

*** [2012-06-12 Tue]
    CLOCK: [2012-06-12 Tue 09:51]--[2012-06-12 Tue 19:05] =>  9:14
    CLOCK: [2012-06-12 Tue 21:38]--[2012-06-13 Wed 03:51] =>  6:13


How would I prevent everything that is related to the time tracking
from showing up in the PDF report
that I create ?  I will want to generate a separate PDF with just the
billable hours.

Nick,  John,

         Thanks for that pointer.  If I put a :noexport: tag on that
headline,  will I at some later point be able to
export just that headline to PDF ?   How ?


cheers,

       mehul

Get rid of the "noexport" tag. Select the subtree with "C-c @" and then
use an export command.

Cheers,
Charles

Check section 12.2, Export Options, in the org manual, in particular
#+EXPORT_SELECT_TAGS and #+EXPORT_EXCLUDE_TAGS. Probably better to
define your own tags in that case, than have noexport mean export
and vice-versa :-)
