Re: resize table in latex

[Zhihao Ding <zhihao.ding@imm.ox.ac.uk>]

Thanks. This idea works, based on which I used the following 
in the end. 

#+NAME: tbl:lab
#+ATTR_LATEX: :caption \caption[short]{\label{tbl:lab} long.} \scriptsize{\resizebox{\textwidth}{!} \centering

It does’t look very org like but is good that it works.

Thanks, 
Zhihao
