Latex Export

Latex Export

[Orm Finnendahl]

Hi,

 when exporting to Latex, all parts/chapters/sections/... get an
asterisk added to the latex command, like \part*{...}, \chapter*{...},
etc.

Rendering to pdf works, but no toc is generated for the file. If
removing the asterisk it works with generating the toc.

It wasn't like that before (I don't know when it changed), so my
questions:

- Is something wrong with my setup?

- Is there a straightforward way to reset to exporting without
  asterisk?

- Is there another way to accomplish rendering a full toc with
  org-export to latex?

This should only happen with

#+options: num:nil

#+options: num:t

If you want both HTML and LaTeX export to look good, you can use

#+MACRO: if-latex-else (eval (if (org-export-derived-backend-p org-export-current-backend 'latex) "#+OPTIONS: num:t" "#+OPTIONS: num:nil"))
{{{if-latex-else}}}

Best wishes,
Arne

LaTeX Export

[Scott Randby]

I have a file with a large number of top-level headlines. Each subtree corresponding to a top-level headline is exported to its own PDF file. The subtrees all use the same LaTeX headers except for \hypersetup. Right now, I have to uncomment the \hypersetup manually whenever I export a subtree. I would like to have the export engine automatically recognize which \hypersetup to use instead.

I tried this in the properties associated with a subtree: 

:export_latex_header: \hypersetup{pdfauthor={foo},pdftitle={foo},pdfsubject={foo},pdfkeywords={foo},pdfproducer={foo},pdfcreator={foo}}

Unfortunately, all the other LaTeX headers are unrecognized when I do this. I could put all of the LaTeX headers in the properties of each subtree, but that would make it difficult to make universal changes to the overall style.

Is there some way to do what I want? Something like this?

:export_add_latex_header: \hypersetup{pdfauthor={foo},pdftitle={foo},pdfsubject={foo},pdfkeywords={foo},pdfproducer={foo},pdfcreator={foo}}

If you put the subtree-specific hypersetup in each subtree's 
EXPORT_LATEX_HEADER_EXTRA property, and the common stuff in 
#+LATEX_HEADER lines, I think it should do what you want.  Org 
should combine these properties rather than using the subtree 
property to override the global ones. 

Hope that helps!

Works perfectly. Thanks.

LaTeX export

[York Zhao]

Hi there,

I'm wondering if there is a way to export ONLY the LaTeX code within
"#+begin_latex" and "#+end_latex". I want the exact literal export without
adding anything before and after my code. The result should be exactly the same
as if I have copied the block between "#+begin_latex" and "#+end_latex" and
pasted to a new buffer.

Thanks,


York

I would use code blocks tangling

,----
| #+TITLE: Test
| 
| * Test headline
| 
| #+begin_src tex :tangle yes
| \documentclass{article}
| \begin{document}
| ...
| \end{document}
| #+end_src
`----

`C-c C-v t' on the block will create a .tex file with the exact content
of the #+begin_src block.

HTH,

Hi Bastien,

Thanks a lot, this really works, and it sounds like literate programming. Can
you suggest some quick reading on using org-mode for literate programming?

Happy new year,

Read Chapter 14 of the Org-mode manual. And go to
http://orgmode.org/worg/ and search with the keyword "literate".

Hi Chris,

Yes, 4.67c is old.  I think Org-mode is at version 7.01 now.

Have you found Worg?  http://orgmode.org/worg/index.php

There are tutorials there for configuring and using Org-mode for LaTeX  
and beamer export.  I think that is where I learned how to update Org- 
mode.

All the best,
Tom

Latex Export

[chris.m.malone]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 916 bytes --]

Hi,

I'm using emacs version 22.2.1 on a Fedora Core 9 machine. I'm new to  
org-mode and am interested in using it to write LaTeX documents/Beamer  
presentations. When I load the export dispatcher with Cc Ce, however, I do  
not have the "l" option for LaTeX export; I only have the following:


[t] insert the export option template
[v] limit export to visible part of outline tree

[a] export as ASCII
[h] export as HTML
[b] export as HTML and browse immediately
[x] export as XOXO

[i] export current file as iCalendar file
[I] export all agenda files as iCalendar files
[c] export agenda files into combined iCalendar file

[F] publish current file
[P] publish current project
[X] publish... (project will be prompted for)
[A] publish all projects


Is there something that I need to turn on in my .emacs file or an  
additional module that needs to be installed to have access to the LaTeX  
exporter?

Chris

Not that I know of. What happens if you press l in any case? If it does export
to latex then it would seem to be some sort of display problem perhaps (lots
of weasel words here but I can't help it). If there is some error, then post
the error.

Latex Export

[Chris Malone]

Hi,

I'm using emacs version 22.2.1 on a Fedora Core 9 machine.  I'm new to 
org-mode and am interested in using it to write LaTeX documents/Beamer 
presentations.  When I load the export dispatcher with C-c C-e, however, I 
do not have the "l" option for LaTeX export; I only have the following:

[t]   insert the export option template
[v]   limit export to visible part of outline tree

[a] export as ASCII
[h] export as HTML
[b] export as HTML and browse immediately
[x] export as XOXO

[i] export current file as iCalendar file
[I] export all agenda files as iCalendar files
[c] export agenda files into combined iCalendar file

[F] publish current file
[P] publish current project
[X] publish... (project will be prompted for)
[A] publish all projects


Is there something that I need to turn on in my .emacs file or an 
additional module that needs to be installed to have access to the LaTeX 
exporter?

Chris

I guess you have an ancient version of org mode.  (do M-x org-version, after
org-mode has started.  Current release version is 7.01h).  See how to get
the latest version here:

http://orgmode.org/manual/Installation.html#Installation

And find the link to the latest version on:

http://orgmode.org

Org mode has expanded exponentially since the version it looks like you
have.

If you want the very latest, follow the instructions on installing the
development version.

LaTeX Export

[Rasmus Pank Roulund]

Hello,
I have got two questions.
I am using Org-mode v. 3.16c. I usually use LaTeX but Org has been
really nice. However, I want to export to LaTeX.
Two features are bugging me though.
  1. Timestambs are really nice, but I don't want them in my final
     print (the LaTeX output). Is there an easy way to remove these? 
  2. The interpretation of $ is probably nice for American but for me
     it creates a lot of undesirable results, since a lot of math is
     not recognized as math for unknown reasons. It would be nice to
     be able to turn the $-feature off [1]. When I need a $-sign I
     would much rather use \$. Maybe the universal currency-symbol ¤
     could be used as a replacement, if the user desire.

If either of these are already possible I appoligize. I was not able
to find an answear to my questions in the manual.

[1] "To avoid conflicts with currency specifications, single '$'
     characters are only recognized as math delimiters if the enclosed
     text contains at most two line breaks, is directly attached to
     the '$' characters with no whitespace in between, and if the
     closing '$' is followed by whitespace or punctuation". 
     --From the Org manual.

Thanks,
Rasmus

Re: LaTeX Export

Hi Rasmus,

First of all, org 3.16c is very old indeed so *maybe* this
works better in a more recent version?

Second, you could help with an example which demonstrates the problem.

Sorry, it is 6.16c :-) (Thanks Matthew!)
I believe it is the version bundled with the latest Emacsw32 from
ourcomments.org. I am using a Emacsw32 from December 2008.
Since I use win32 I am not able to use the provided update-script. 
Is is okay to overwrite the el files in the Emacs folder and recompile
them?

> Second, you could help with an example which demonstrates the problem.
Sorry. I should have included examples in the first post.
Here is an example from the notes I am working on.
The LaTeX output is:

    \begin{itemize}
    \item Indtegnes i et $x_1/x_2$-diagram, evt. med indifferentkurver.
    \item Kurve, der sammensætte alle de bedste løsninger \$(x_1^{*},
          x_2^{*})$ ved varierende indkomst $m$.
    \end{itemize}

Notice the \$ in the second item. Since I rarely use $ as a symbol but
use it all the time as math delimiter it would be more efficient to use
\$ when I actually need a $-sign.

Here is the corresponding Org code:

    - Indtegnes i et $x_1/x_2$-diagram, evt. med indifferentkurver.
    - Kurve, der sammensætte alle de bedste løsninger $(x_1^{*},
      x_2^{*})$ ved varierende indkomst $m$.

The trouble is probably caused by my auto-fill-mode hook, but I really
cannot stand long lines, and I absolutely love auto-fill-mode.

Here is an example of the information I would like to have washed out.
The LaTeX code contains the following:
    \section{Forbrugeroverskud}
    \label{sec-10}
      \texttt{SCHEDULED:} \texttt{<2008-12-30 ti>}
        \texttt{CLOCK:} [2008-12-30 ti 13:42]--[2008-12-30 ti 15:47] =>  2:05
    
Here is the corresponding Org code:
     * DONE Forbrugeroverskud
       SCHEDULED: <2008-12-30 ti>
         CLOCK: [2008-12-30 ti 13:42]--[2008-12-30 ti 15:47] =>  2:05

I have (setq org-export-with-timestamps t) btw.
With #+OPTIONS: <:nil time stamps are still present (after refreshing
and re-exporting).

Another thing on LaTeX Export: Why so much \texttt{}? Org stamps (and
tags) such as CLOSED are written with \texttt{}. I am not sure why.

On check boxes: Can their look be customized? I would rather use
\CheckedBox and \Square from the Wasysym package. It is LaTeX so there
is no reason to use ASCII persudo boxes (IMO, of course). 

Long post. Sorry.

I have not yet looked at the issues with the timestamps.

I have gotten the newest git version from today. I have Org v6.17trans.

There is still something funny with $-signs.

Here are a couple of examples:
------
LaTeX output: 
      \item Hvis en vare har input \$x\$ \dots

Org:
      - Hvis en vare har input $x$ \dots
------
LaTeX output:
       $$M\overline{V}=P\overline{Y}$$
       \$M\$ er bestemt af centralbanken, og det eneste den bestemmer er
       prisniveauet.

Org:
     - Produktionsfunktionen brugt af monetarister:
       $$M\overline{V}=P\overline{Y}$$
       $M$ er bestemt af centralbanken, og det eneste den bestemmer er
       prisniveauet.
------
LaTeX output (this one is particuarily troublesome):
      \item På arbejdsmarkedet bestemmes ligevægten imellem $L_d$ og $L_s\$
       Her ud fra findes ligevægten i udbudet.

Org:
     - På arbejdsmarkedet bestemmes ligevægten imellem $L_d$ og $L_s$
       Her ud fra findes ligevægten i udbudet.
------
LaTeX (also troublesome):
      \item Givet ved $y=f(l, k)\$

Org: 
     - Givet ved $y=f(l, k)$
------
There are lots of \$ in the end of math even though there is no line
break.

Cheers,
Rasmus

Re: Re: LaTeX Export

[Carsten Dominik]

Hi Rasmus,

please keep testing!

I have fixed the issues you mentioned in you mail - I am
sure there will be more.

Parsing TeX is hard, parsing pseudo-TeX like in Org-mode
is even harder.  Note that this will never be perfect.
In particular, $-parsing is a bitch.  You can elagantly
cheat out by using \(...\) and \[...\] instead.

Re: LaTeX Export

[Rasmus Pank Roulund]

Hello,
Sorry for the late reply. This is regarind a bug in LaTeX export.
The trouble seems to happen when autofill is used. It
might be caused by something else. I am not sure. The thing is
that Org sometimes misintpretate $ as the currency symbolar
rather than "math" as in LaTeX-lingu. IMO the use of $ as a
currency symbol should be optional.

Here is an example of the error:

Org source: 

   - Funktioner findes ved at sætte funktionen lige en given konstant
     $k$. Dermed bestemmes indifferentfunktion. Det ses nemt at
     $u(x_1, x_2)=k$.

LaTeX export: 

   \item Funktioner findes ved at sætte funktionen lige en given konstant
         \$k\$. Dermed bestemmes indifferentfunktion. Det ses nemt at
         $u(x_1, x_2)=k$.

I have pulled the newest revision of Org. The version is 6.22b.

Thanks,
Rasmus

Please remove your customization of org-format-latex-options.
You can do this by doing

M-x customize-variable RET org-format-latex-options RET

and then clicking on "Erase customizations", then
"Set for current session", then "Save for future sessions".

After that, re-make any customizations you want in that variable.

Some time ago I added a new matcher "$1" for single characters
between dollars like in this case.  People who have
customized this option unfortunately do not get to see it.

That said, Giovanni's proposal to use \(....\) is excellent
advice, at least in cases where using $..$ causes trouble.

On my version of Emacs

GNU Emacs 22.2.1 (i486-pc-linux-gnu, X toolkit, Xaw3d scroll bars) of
2008-11-09 on raven, modified by Debian

if I click on [Save for future sessions] it also sets the current
session data.  I don't need to click on both.

I used to do that but decided one day to figure out if that was really
necessary (since I was messing with lots of configuration variables
through the customize interface and clicking on both buttons was bugging
me :) )

That was probably the problem. It works a lot better now! Thanks.

Acctually, at first I used \(...\) but at that time Org had a harder
time picking up \(...\) than $...$ which caused a lot of \($...$\). I
have not checked whether it works better now.

I assume you mean org-mode 6.13c?

You can control this option either with global settings:

(setq org-export-with-timestamps nil)

or with in-buffer options[1]:

#+OPTIONS: <:nil

As I'm testing this myself, however, I'm finding that this option
works fine for html export, but is not working for LaTeX export in org
6.17a. (Just to be clear: I'm refreshing the buffer settings with C-c
C-c before exporting.)

Strangely, when export with timestamps is turned on, only the last
timestamped item appears in the LaTeX export (e.g., the CLOSED
timestamp on an item that had been scheduled). But when I turn the
timestamp option off, all timestamps appear in the exported LaTeX
(e.g., both SCHEDULED and CLOSED timestamps).

I'm also finding that TODO keywords do not appear in the latex output
with the following option turned on:

#+OPTIONS: todo:t

Can anyone else duplicate this behavior?

Thanks,
Matt

It is working now. 

I had only (require 'org) instead of (require 'org-install).

Thanks Carsten!

latex export

[Johanna Matschke]

Hi!

Sofar (up to org-mode 5.xx) "C-c Ce l" would export the hole org file. But 
now (I tested various versions 6.0x) it only exports the first heading. Did 
something change there? How do I get back the earlier behaviour?

Thanks!

Hi Johanna,

I think it still does export the full file.  Can you give
use more information, maybe an example file, details about
what your actions are, what results you are getting and what
you did expect.

Latex Export

[Russell Adams]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 721 bytes --]

I'm starting to learn Latex, and thought I'd ask if anyone had
pointers regarding Org/Latex integration.

My ultimate goal is to be able to export quality documents written in
Org with complete header/footer/letterhead and formatting in LaTeX in
PDF.

I understand I need to learn more about TeX along the way, and am
already reading and experimenting.

I'm sure I'm not the first, and wanted to see what others had
accomplished with Latex.

Thanks.

I think that the Latex-exporter is *not* suited for such complex task.
I also think that it shouldn't (K.I.S.S.). 

IMHO you should either learn LaTeX (please, have a look to "A not so short
introduction to LaTeX" ) and write your documents in Emacs or use an
editor in which you can really define every parameter such as lyx.

Cheers,
Giovanni

Actually, a basic TOC, sections, tables etc... I think it fits the
bill. I'm moving into Latex because I kept doing an HTML export and
moving that into Word so I could apply more formatting.

If I can use an option to throw on a header/footer, or specify a
separate document format, that'd do it.

I might use Emacs to write TeX. ;]

Most of the LaTeX code you would insert in Org files will be exported
ok.  This LaTeX could be LaTeX fragments, or more complex commands.
Check `org-latex-entities' for a list of recognized commands.

If you want to insert several lines of LaTeX code, put them between
these markers:

#+BEGIN_LaTeX
...
#+END_LaTeX 

If you want to insert a specific LaTeX header, just define the variable
`org-export-latex-header' locally in your Org file.  See the Org manual
at (info "(org)CSS support") for an example on setting a local variable
in Org, and replace `org-export-html-style' by `org-export-latex-header'
in this example.

If you want to use your own customized LaTeX class then define it in
`org-export-latex-classes' and add #+LaTeX_CLASS: myclass as a local
option in your Org file.

Combining all these should provide a nearly complete environment to
write in Org and have a good LaTeX output.  It won't catch all the
complexity and flexibility of LaTeX (or TeX) but I guess it will be
enough as a start !

Actually, we really *lack* a tutorial on the LaTeX export.

Re: Latex Export

[Russell Adams]

Based on this discussion, I think I have a valid feature request.

The exporters all refuse to export text before the first headline. I
agree with that.

However I'm including per buffer options at the top of my file,
#+OPTIONS and the like. Turns out that #+BEGIN_LaTeX and #+END_LaTeX
before the first headline are considered comments and not exported.

This is a problem where I'm trying to select a style or define
variables used later in LaTeX code.

I think that BEGIN/END latex should be considered configuration data
like other /^#/ directives and exported before the first headline.

Comments?

Hi Russell,

Russell Adams <RLAdams@AdamsInfoServ.Com> writes:

The exporters skip text before the first headline only if you set the
relevant option:

#+OPTIONS: skip:t

If you don't specify anything about this in the #+OPTIONS line, then the
exporters will fall back on `org-export-skip-text-before-1st-heading'.

This applies to normal text as well as text inside #+BEGIN_LaTeX and
#+END_LaTeX markers.

But this does not apply to text after #+TEXT though.  This text is
*always* exported.

I think the right way to do this is to set a local value for the
variable `org-export-latex-append-header' at the end of your file:

,----
| * COMMENT LaTeX local variable
| 
| # Local Variables:
| # org-export-latex-append-header: "\\usepackage{fancyhrd}"
| # End:
`----

This will append "\usepackage{fancyhrd}" to the LaTeX header that is
defined in `org-export-latex-classes'.

>

#+BEGIN_LaTeX and #+END_LaTeX have a more general purpose than just
 adding "configuration" and you should be able to use them anywhere 
in the Org source.  

I think the real question is: what people are doing of #+TEXT?  

Is it useful as it is now ("this text comes before the first heading,
overriding the skip option")?  Or should it be redefined so as to mean
"This piece of text should be inserted in the *header* of the target
format?"

Comment?

Re: Latex Export

[Russell Adams]

On a note related to #+OPTIONS and exporting, I've taken to using
sub-buffers (C-c C-x b) on a tree to limit my view to a specific
tree. I've discovered that I can export in this mode, however, export
doesn't honor the #+OPTIONS from the original file.

I'm sure this is because the exporter is limiting its scope to the
current buffer, as if I paste my #+OPTIONS at the top of the subtree
buffer, it works fine. This is only temporary though, and doesn't
survive reopening the subbuffer, and adds the text to the prior
heading's content. ;]

Other than temporarily adding an OPTIONS line, what are my options? I
don't recall export options as a property yet. I suppose I could set
common options in my .emacs.

I welcome comments!

Thanks!

LaTeX export

Hello,

Using org mode for near everything, I want to use LaTeX export.

I have 2 problems:

- the underscore "_" is not escaped,
- I use non-breakable spaces in my input files, like « some text »,
  is-it possible to replace this by "~" ?

Regards.

Can you provide an example with context for both the input and the
output?  Maybe the #+OPTIONS: line could be useful as well.

Yes, I will add this to the list of special characters conversions.

Well, having "_" in my ORG file was litteraly a "_" in my LaTeX source
and compiling the LaTex source complains about missing $.

I'm not able to reproduce this I don't understand what happend :-/

But now, how can I have some\_thing in my LaTeX source ?

I write many documents with something like:

variable_name

 and I don't want them to become:

$variable_{name}$

in my LaTeX source.

I've also spotted this.  I guess it's hard to make it right.
By default, org-mode doesn't require `$'s to recognize
certain region as math environment.  See info page

: 10.2 Subscripts and Superscripts
: ================================
: 
: Just like in LaTeX, `^' and `_' are used to indicate super- and
: subscripts.  Again, these can be used without embedding them in
: math-mode delimiters.  To increase the readability of ASCII text, it is
: not necessary (but OK) to surround multi-character sub- and superscripts
: with curly braces.  For example
: 
:      The mass if the sun is M_sun = 1.989 x 10^30 kg.  The radius of
:      the sun is R_{sun} = 6.96 x 10^8 m.
: 
:    To avoid interpretation as raised or lowered text, you can quote `^'
: and `_' with a backslash: `\_' and `\^'.
: 
:    During HTML export (*note HTML export::), subscript and superscripts
: are surrounded with `<sub>' and `<sup>' tags, respectively.

But I would like to propose a work-around.  How about make
`^' and `_' in those regions marked as =this_code= or
something similar not be interpreted as super- and
subscripts?

You can already protect strings from conversion by playing with 
`org-export-latex-emphasis-alist', which default value is:

  '(("*" "\\textbf{%s}" nil)
    ("/" "\\emph{%s}" nil)
    ("_" "\\underline{%s}" nil)
    ("+" "\\texttt{%s}" nil)
    ("=" "\\texttt{%s}" nil))

If you use `t' instead of `nil' for the last element of this list, then
=this_string= will be converted as \texttt{this_string} instead of

  \texttt{$this_{string}$}  when ^:t
  \texttt{this\_{}string}   when ^:nil

I do agree that all this could be improved, and I hope I'll come with a
general solution for the next release.  Ideas welcome!

In the meanwhile, testing latest org-export-latex.el will help *a lot*:

At least two solutions:

- directly write some\_thing in your Org source

- use ^:nil in your #+OPTIONS (this will turn off any sub/superscript
  conversion)
