Hi John,
I don't think I had those square brackets, yesterday, but see at the end
about them.
Anyway, I thought of something which gives me a result I'd say is Ok for me:
1. Change the .org files as follows
- add a space to empty headings (as written yesterday)
- add "texht:nil" to the #+OPTIONS: line (without the quotes)
2. Use the following class definition:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(setq org-latex-classes
'(("exam"
"\\documentclass[12pt]{exam}
% BEGIN exam Defaults
[NO-DEFAULT-PACKAGES]
[PACKAGES]
\\usepackage{palatino}
\\extrawidth{.5in}
\\extraheadheight{-.75in}
\\extrafootheight[-3in]{-.75in}
\\pagestyle{headandfoot}
\\NoKey
\\NumberOfVersions{1}
\\renewcommand\\thequestion{\\Roman{question}}
\\renewcommand\\thepartno{\\arabic{partno}}
\\renewcommand\\partlabel{\\thepartno.}
% END exam Defaults
"
("\\begin{questions} %% %s" "\\end{questions}")
("\\question %% %s" . "\\question* %% %s")
("\\begin{parts} %% %s" "\\end{parts}")
("\\part %% %s" . "\\part* %% %s"))))
#+end_src
As you can see, I still have the %s (now without the curly braces) but
as a LaTeX comment after %...
About the labels, well, I'd just leave them; as long as you don't
reference them they shouldn't disturb anything.
If you still get those square brackets; I use org-mode from the git
repository, as of yesterday or the day before. Are you using org-mode
8.0.2 or earlier? I think this gets fixed by Aaron Ecay's patch from
May 02/03. If you don't want to use the git version, download version
8.0.5 from orgmode.org.
Does this work for you?
Best regards
Robert
