But including #+ATTR_LATEX: :options itemsep=1pt before a simple list in my org-mode subtree does not change the vertical spacing between list items at all. And a relevant exerpt from my .tex exported file is \begin{itemize} \item Don't fill out a form that the student has signed, blank, ahead of time \item Don't fill out a second form after you have already submitted one \item Don't mention any suggested grade for the clerkship. Performance in your office counts for half the final grade; the other half is based on other activities \end{itemize} Note no [itemsep= ] option. --Chris Christopher W.
