If I begin a line with bolded text, like so:
*Case 1:*
it produces the following LaTeX:
\textbf{Case 1:\}
Exporting with C-c C-e d produces an empty LaTeX document.
Is this reproducible? Is it a bug?
Thank you,
- Raffi.

It works fine with me so long as I have something before this line,
even just the template generated by C-x C-e t. (see attached file)
However, in testing this out, I have run into two little problems:
1. if I simply visit a buffer (not a file), say x.org, and try
exporting to Latex in a temporary buffer (C-c C-e L), I get the
following error:
,----
| Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument stringp nil)
| file-name-nondirectory(nil)
| org-export-as-latex(nil nil nil "*Org LaTeX Export*")
| org-export-as-latex-to-buffer(nil)
| call-interactively(org-export-as-latex-to-buffer)
| org-export(nil)
| call-interactively(org-export nil nil)
`----
2. if I subsequently save the buffer into a file (C-x C-w x.org), for
some reason I get prompted for a file name when trying C-c C-e L.
This is all with org-mode from git as of this morning.

Eric,
Others will know better, but I think it's right to say, that's just how
latex export (currently) works. It needs to have your buffer saved (C-x
C-s), and not just written to a file somewhere (C-x C-w). This seems true
even if all you want to do is get your latex in a temporary buffer. It's
not ideal for rustling up a quick piece of throwaway LaTeX, but, as I
remember, it's always been that way.

Interestingly, my LaTeX also chokes on the sample x.org; while I can
export it, I get the error "The file x.org could not be opened because
it is empty." This is on OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard using Preview. It only
occurs using PDFs generated from org, as far as I can tell. I will
explore some more to see if it's due to LaTeX or Preview or something
else.
Has anyone else had this problem?

I am not able to reproduce it. WOrks just fine for me. Can you
please make
a complete example file and attach the produced tex file as well? And
maybe
you settings as listed bu org-submit-bug-report?
Are you using the latest version of Org-mode? Git release?
Thanks

At lease with the latest version I cannot reproduce this.
Can you please check again after pulling?
Thanks.

Carsten,
it all works very well indeed. Exporting to a temporary latex buffer
works in both of these cases:
1. visiting a new buffer, no file attached;
2. after saving the buffer to a file (write-file).
Further, the OP's original problem is definitely not there.
Thanks,
eric
