Beamer presantation, Abstract and Article in same document - how to structure and how to export?

Beamer presantation, Abstract and Article in same document - how to structure and how to export?

[Rainer M Krug]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1546 bytes --]

Hi

I would like to have one document containing

1) abstract for
2) a presentation and 
3) a resulting paper

My question is: how can I structure this an how can I handle the export?

Obviously under different top level headers:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
* Abstract
#+begin_abstract
Needs top be written
#+end_abstract

* Presentation
** Title
*** first slide
...
* Paper
** Abstract
How can I refer to the abstract above?
** ...
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

But what about the specific settings? Can I set them per subtree?

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#+LaTeX_CLASS: beamer
#+LaTeX_CLASS_OPTIONS: [bigger]
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

I could than export each subtree separate?

Can I define the name for the exported document per subtree?

How can I switch easily between different settings?

Any suggestions or examples?

Or should I use publishing (I am always reluctant, as it seems so complicated)?

Thanks,

Rainer

While you may not necessarily *need* beamerarticle, you might still find
it enlightening.  See section 21.2 in the beamer manual.

Example:

#+title: beamer example with text not shown
#+options: h:2
#+latex_class_options: [ignorenonframetext]
* h1
text that is not part of any slide 
** my first slide
- a
- b

Another companion is #+include which you can use to extract named element
from one file to the other, e.g. to share tables.

Isn't the latex class guess correctly?

Should be easy to do with a bit of lisp.

For #+LaTeX_CLASS_OPTIONS I'd maybe use a macro.
I'd also use this for setting export tags, e.g. 

#+MACRO: exclude-tags (eval (mapconcat 'identity (list "#+EXCLUDE_TAGS:" "noexport" (concat "no" (symbol-name org-export-current-backend))) " "))

You might also find the if clause in this macro interesting:

#+MACRO: abbr (eval (if (org-export-derived-backend-p org-export-current-backend 'html) "@@html:<abbr title=\"$2\">@@$1@@html:</abbr>@@" "$1"))

Hope it helps,
Rasmus

Thanks - both good ideas. I will look into them. I have already put the
[ignorenonframetext] option in.

I only copied from the work examples - but it is true - I don't need
this - and to leave it out, actually makes life much easier.

I use emacs, org, ess and gnus , but I never managed to get a real grasp
of elisp.

OK - thanks - found it.

Thanks - I will look into this. I used macros already - but this looke=s
very interesting.

Cheers,

Rainer
