Latex export - footnotes and emphasis

Latex export - footnotes and emphasis

[Matthew Lundin]

Hi Carsten,

When I export a footnote that begins with emphasis/italics markup, the
markup is not converted to \emph in the LaTeX output.

E.g., the following source...

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#+title: Test

This is a footnote.[fn:footnote]

[fn:footnote] /Test./
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Is exported as (some of preamble omitted):

,----
| \title{Test}
| \author{Matthew Lundin}
| \date{March 28, 2009}
| 
| \begin{document}
| 
| \maketitle
| 
| \setcounter{tocdepth}{3}
| \tableofcontents
| \vspace*{1cm}
| 
| 
| This is a footnote.\footnote{/Test./ }
| 
| 
| 
| \end{document}
`----

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Matt

I can confirm this.

Another related issue is that italics and bold do not mix in latex export.
You can't do something like this:

/An italicized sentence with a *bold* bit./  or *vice /versa/*.

Also, and this may be unavoidable without adding significant complexity to
the export engine.  But you can't, e.g.
/carry your emphasis on until after the punctuation is over./   (It's been a
while since I tested this.  I'll check it out again today).
For LaTeX export in particular, it would be nice to have finer control over
just where the emphasis goes.  For periods it's not generally an issue :-),
but some of the taller punctuation get into fistfights with their text if
they aren't allowed to be italicized too.

Nested emphasis is indeed not possible.

However, as a LaTeX user, I think you can do

/An italicized sentence with a \textbf{bold} bit./

Indeed.

This does work, I think.

Emphasis is one of the nightmares, and I will only work
on this at gun point :-)

I installed the most recent org from the git repo and footnotes that
begin with italics markup are still not converted to \emph in LaTeX.
(See example below.)

Thanks,

Re: Latex export - footnotes and emphasis

[Carsten Dominik]

Hi Matt,

well, if I export that exact same document, then I get

-------------------------------------------------------------------
\title{Test}
\author{Carsten Dominik}
\date{30 March 2009}

\begin{document}

\maketitle

\setcounter{tocdepth}{3}
\tableofcontents
\vspace*{1cm}

This is a footnote.\footnote{\emph{Test.} }



\end{document}
------------------------------------------------

Hi Carsten,

I think I figured out the problem. I reset
org-emphasis-regexp-components to the new default (I had customized it)
and everything now works fine.

Thanks,
Matt
