Org's latex exporter is exceptionally capable.  AFAICT, it doesn't 
have practical limits on the LaTeX it produces, at least for my 
academic use case.  I'm able to use all of the LaTeX packages I've 
ever wanted to use.

With the world of LaTeX at your feet, I recommend The LaTeX 
Companion by Mittelbach and Goosens.  My well-worn copy is almost 
20 years old, and I use it as often now as when I did all of my 
writing in LaTeX.  Of course, there are many new LaTeX packages in 
the last 20 years, but LaTeX was very capable at the turn of the 
millennium and the few new packages I use were easy to discover by 
browsing.

hth,
Tom
